My name is Robin Mavis. I've been involved in the Wiccan and Pagan communities regularly
for a year now. I'm also a community organizer in my own school district for equal rights
for the GLBT community as an ally.

I've been asked by Minnesotans United For All Families to be the coordinator for
organizing the Pagan and Wiccan faith community to come together and defeat the proposed
marriage amendment that will be on our state's ballot November 2012.

I understand most covens, lodges, circles and organized groups do not involve themselves
politically, but I was wondering if you would be willing to pass on information to your
members on how they can contact me if they are interested in joining this effort as
individuals.

Of course, if your group would be willing to make a formal statement, that would be
awesome too! Many congregations of faith are doing so and it would not jeapordize your
IRS standing as a non-profit. Religious organizations are allowed to take public
positions on ballot issues such as marriage, reproductive rights, etc. They are only
restricted from campagning or endorsing individual candidates for political office.

I can be reached by email at arm2189@gmail.com
I've also started a Facebook page at http://www.facebook.com/home.php#!/PAW.MNUnited
and am holding a First Footing and Organizing House Party on January 1st. The facebook
event is here: http://www.facebook.com/home.php#!/events/262181107173641/

Thank you so much for taking the time to read this and I would love to hear from you and
if you can offer any suggestions on other groups, organizations or covens to reach out to
I would greatly appreciate it!

Peace and Light
Robin Mavis
