	Matthew Whitaker on Civil Rights

My faith requires me to support traditional marriage

Ernst reiterated that she was for traditional marriage between one man and one woman. She reminded the audience that she was a co-sponsor for the Marriage amendment in the Iowa Senate.

Whitaker also said he was for traditional marriage. He took a shot at Schaben saying that he disagreed with him, and that his faith does not allow him to hold that position. "If we start saying there are more important things than life and marriage we might as well elect a Democrat," Whitaker stated.
