| | Equal Rights for SC Gays & Lesbians Petition |
 | | We, the below, sign to express opposition to South Carolina House Bills # 4657, # 4674 and Senate Bill # 996, denying marriage recognition and benefits to gay couples who wed in other states and Senate Bill # 387 making it illegal for gay couples to adopt children in South Carolina. |
 | | We, the below, oppose any State or Federal Constitutional Amendment defining marriage as “one man to one woman”, thus enshrining discrimination into documents that are intended to protect civil rights and ensure equality. |
 | | We, the below, are South Carolinians and Americans — of all colors, of all ethnicities, of all religions, of all classes, of all ages, and of all sexual orientations. |
