A coalition of groups supporting same-sex marriage is asking for volunteers to help defeat an effort to make same-sex marriage unconstitutional in California. Equality for All, a coalition of LGBT and allied civil rights groups, is launching a "Decline to Sign" campaign to discourage people from signing petitions that support putting an anti-gay marriage initiative on the November ballot.

Sometimes we need to fear what our fellow citizens will agree to due to ignorance and a desire to fit in.

The effort to curb Missouri’s payday loan industry is shaping up as a David-Goliath struggle.
The little guys are the church and community activists who are collecting signatures in an effort to ask Missouri voters to limit the amount of debt the state’s short-term lending businesses can pile on consumers. Let’s hope their slingshot is in good working order.
The payday lending industry is gearing up big-time to avoid seeing Missouri go the way of Arizona and Montana, where voters approved initiative ballots limiting the annual percentage rate of a short-term loan.
Last week it paid $86,000 to Axiom Strategies, the company owed by Kansas City campaign guru Jeff Roe, for duties such as strategic campaign oversight ($15,000); strategic communications ($16,000); regional operations management ($25,000); and Website design ($9,500).
Earlier this year, the payday loan industry founded a political action committee called Missourians for Equal Credit Opportunity. Records filed with the Missouri Ethics Commission show the committee was terminated last week, and a balance of $107,000 was transferred to a campaign committee of the same name.
