Marilyn O'Grady on Civil Rights


Supports a constitutional ban on same-sex marriages

Q: Would you support or oppose a ban on same-sex marriages? And why?

A: I support the concept of a constitutional amendment to define marriage as between a man and a woman. I think this is the proper way to do this. And that by doing a constitutional amendment, that would be a legislative - allowing the people to decide this issue.

Defend bedrock tradition of marriage between one man & woman

Marilyn is committed to defending the bedrock traditions of our society, including protecting the institution of marriage between one man and woman. She supports President Bush in his call for a Constitutional Amendment to protect marriage. And she will explore cutting off Federal funding to stares and localities that condone gay marriages.
