Now would also be a good time for DC-based marriage-equality activists to begin their own fundraising efforts focusing on <i>local</i> contributions. It might also be a good time to begin message development and to clearly identify the outside influences that seem to again be determined to impose themselves upon DC. I suggest that there are is a distinct advantage to getting ahead of the curve in any campaign, whether or not anything ultimately comes to a vote, just to be sure that pro-marriage-equality interests get a chance to shape the debate rather than simply react to attacks by the enemies of freedom.
