The more the proponents of Amendment 2 spend, about $16 million to date, almost all from James Stowers of the Stowers Institute, who is determined to buy a constitutional amendment, the worse the measure does. This poll of likely voters shows it with 52% yes, down from above 60% when the initiative first qualified for the ballot. True, it is above 50%, but realize the opponents, which have much less money, have not started their media buys yet. And, the proponents have been so dishonest, it could be that the voters of the “Show Me” state will turn their backs on the amendment in disgust. They certainly should.
You have a decision to make: double or nothing.
For this week only, a generous supporter has offered to fully match all new and increased donations to First Things up to $60,000.
In other words, your gift of $50 unlocks $100 for First Things, your gift of $100 unlocks $200, and so on, up to a total of $120,000. But if you don’t give, nothing.
So what will it be, dear reader: double, or nothing?
Make your year-end gift go twice as far for First Things by giving now.
