   PARTNERSHIP LAW IN BRAZIL 

*** SUMMARY ***

   WE ASK FOR SUPPORT:  *URGENT ACTION*  

The Religous Right managed to postpone the votation for the Partnership Law.
They  want to make it coincide with the Pope's visit to Brazil in October. They
think it will make the legislators more inclined to listen to the religious
right's position against partnership. *We still can revert this*.
   
*** ACTION ***

There is a chance that the bill is voted in August. Therefore we urge that
you send polite letters or faxes in English, Spanish, French or Portuguese,
