Obama Administration Won’t Defend Federal Defense of Marriage Act in Court

…biggest talking point against gays and lesbians—that sexual orientation is not like race because they believe gays and lesbians can “pray away the gay.” This is just one in a long line of victories, or pending victories, for marriage equality.

Jose Antonio Vargas’ Coming Out and the Power of Stories over Religious Remonstrances

…de by conservative religious groups, these arguments fell on deaf ears; as Colorado Democrat Jared Polis told me last year, these remonstrances, as Peter calls them, moved not one single congressional Republican in favor of immigration reform. And, to be sure, religious arguments for UAFA fared no better; they were met with religious arguments against including UAFA in any comprehensive package because naturally some allegedy loving religious advo…

In a church. On a Sunday. The battleground, in other words, is not new, and the NAR isn’t the only s…

…io has become for anti-choice organizers, where pro-choice senators are outnumbered by a ratio of 2-to-1. “It’s the strategy they disagree about, it’s not the goal,” she notes. “This is really… an indicator that in the last election, large anti-choice majorities were elected to the Ohio house and senate.
