INDIANA: Mary Cheney Speaks Against Proposed Gay Marriage Ban
As advertised, Mary Cheney on Thursday appeared at a Freedom Indiana event to denounce the attempt to write a gay marriage ban into the state constitution. Via Buzzfeed:
Of Freedom Indiana’s campaign against the proposal, which must be passed by the legislature for a second time before being put to the people for a vote, Mary Cheney said, “While certainly a step in the right direction, defeating HJR-6 won’t get us there. Not even close.” Freedom Indiana campaign manager Megan Robertson said in a statement, “We were honored to have Ms. Cheney visit Indiana and voice her opposition to HJR-6, the proposed amendment that would permanently destroy legal protections for so many Hoosier families.”Hit the link for video of Cheney's remarks.
