No on Prop 8 Bus Tour
WHO: Three families and friends who will be embarking on a three day trip traveling throughout the state to raise awareness on NO on PROP 8. Their goal is to show that all families share the same concerns for our kids and for their futures.
The families will be comprised of both gay and straight parents, and grandparents. Confirmed to be on hand in Santa Monica, will be Mark Ruffalo and his family. Waiting for confirmation for several other celebrities. In addition, a crowd of over 300 opponents to Prop 8 are expected to show.
WHAT: A tour bus completely wrapped in vinyl with the “NO on Prop 8” artwork
WHY: “We do not want to wake up on Wed, November 5th along with thousands of other gay and lesbian families, to tell our son that his parents can no longer be married,” said co-organizers Jeff Miller and Todd Thurman. “Tragically, if Prop 8 passes, we will know that we have done everything we could have done to defeat Prop 8 and prevent them from taking away a right for us as human beings and that of our children.”
WHEN: Saturday, November 1st at 9:00am.
The NO on PROP 8 bus will depart from the entrance to Santa Monica Pier at Ocean and Colorado first down to San Diego, then continuing up to San Francisco by Sunday evening. The journey on Monday morning will take them to the steps of the state capital in Sacramento. Afterwards the bus will return to Los Angeles with a final stop at 7pm at West Hollywood Park on San Vicente Blvd.
