Fred Hubbell on Civil Rights

 

 


Proud of Iowa's equal protection for same-sex couples

When asked to explain her stance on same-sex marriage, Gov. Kim Reynolds replied, "I think that's been determined," a reference to the state and federal court rulings on the issue. When pressed again on the question, she said that people have traditional views on what they believe marriage consists of, and they have every right to have those views, but that the issue has been decided by the courts.

Reynolds also said that a vote of the people on the issue would stop "this back and forth" debate over the matter. She did not say when or how that vote should take place.

Reynolds' press secretary clarified the governor's comments after the news conference, saying: "The governor believes that this issue is settled."

Fred Hubbell, Iowa's Democratic nominee for governor, supports same-sex marriage. "Fred is proud that Iowa's Supreme Court led the way in defining equal protection, affirmed by the U.S. Supreme Court," said a Hubbell aide.
