Firmly committed to the values of fairness and equality, and unalterably opposed to discrimination in any form, the Harris County Democratic Party urges Democrats and all other voters in Harris County and Texas to vote NO on Proposition 2 on the November 8 ballot, and thereby to reject amending the constitution of the State of Texas in a way which places unnecessary restrictions on marriage and limits civil unions and other relationships.
