Sharing this from Add the Words:
Friends Statewide,
Today's the day.
From Coeur d'Alene to
Idaho Falls we'll
gather. Bring a pen and,
if you can, a sticky
note all written out. If
there's no event in your
town, PLEASE gather
yourself, a friend, a
sign and take a photo.
Send it to us at addthewords@gmail.com
Post to facebook. Tell
friends.
Thank you for being
part of the amazing
progress this year in
legislator's attitudes
toward gay people. We
now have a hearing for
introduction in the
Senate. The next step
would be a public
hearing. Our first ever.
But we need YOUR
legislator's vote. Let
them know you care.
We CAN
finally end the fear
and legal
discrimination still
faced by so many of
our gay and
transgender family
members and friends. Please
stand with us TODAY.
Let's make history.

Julie Zicha from
Pocatello: "I
lost my son to
intolerance
last January.
Please Add the
Words so we
don't lose any
more kids."
"Let's add the
words already!,"
Emily Walton
from Declo,
Idaho.
"Please think.
There are many
kids wondering
what they did
wrong & the
answer is
Nothing. Please
Add the Words."
Former HP
Executive Don
Curtis Sr. says,
"I want all my
children equal
under the law.
Please add the
words."
Jazz Musician
Curtis Stigers says, "Add
the Words, Idaho!"
.........................
Like
you, we are
dertermined
it's time for
Idaho law
makers to
finally add
the words
"sexual
orientation"
and "gender
identity" to
Idaho's human
rights act!
Together
this Saturday
we can bring
friends and
gather from
Weiser to
Coeur d'Alene
from Idaho
Falls to Twin
Falls and help
make Idaho a
better place
for our gay
and
transgender
friends.
We
now have over
500 sticky
note messages
from over 50
Idaho cities
and every
legislative
district in
the state.
Email yours.
Share
with friends
and ask them
to sign the petition

word message
for us to post
for them in
