Endorsements in the Australian Marriage Law Postal Survey
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A number of politicians, public figures, media outlets, businesses and other organisations endorsed voting either in favour or against same-sex marriage during the Australian Marriage Law Postal Survey.
Lead lobby groups
- Australian Marriage Equality – The leading lobby group for same-sex marriage in Australia, running under the banner of the Equality Campaign, announced at a press conference on 11 August that, if the legal challenge to the survey is unsuccessful, "we have a duty to every Aussie who supports fairness and equality to try to win it. We are in this to win this".[1]
- GetUp! – The left-leaning activist group announced it would "engage in a campaign to win a Yes result...to deliver...the fairer and more equal country we believe in".[2]
