What is the authors goal?
The author’s main goal of this website is to win over more states to legalize same-sex
marriage. The author of the website has set up a place on a webpage where
donations are accepted to keep this organization funded and to spread the word of
legalizing same-sex marriage across America.
Facts from the author:
• Using Loving as a measure, we are doing well, having moved from just about a
quarter of public support 15 years ago to above majority support today – far
better than the 70% of Americans who opposed interracial marriage in 1967.
• Moving forward, Freedom to Marry will continue to increase and diversify the
national support for marriage, leading the way in efforts to change hearts and
minds through powerful messengers and groundbreaking research with the new
goal of getting public support for the freedom to marry over 60% by 2016.

Conclusion…
I think that the first website was very factual
and informative. It provided a lot of statistical
research and evidence, while also
encouraging the point of the website in a way
that entices the readers.

Future Research…
 What are the main issues holding the states back from
legalizing same-sex marriage?
 Will there come a time when same-sex marriage is legal across
the United States?
 What are the statistics of same-sex couples staying married to
one another as opposed to opposite-sex couples?
