Thank You Senator Feingold!

Jennifer Gubitz Posted by Jennifer Gubitz, Legislative Assistant

On April 4, 2006, Wisconsin Senator Russell Feingold announced his opposition to the discriminatory marriage amendment. He continues to be a great supporter of Marriage Equality.

“Feingold noted that removing the prohibition against gay marriage would not impose any obligation on religious groups. He indicated that no religious faith should ever be forced to conduct or recognize any marriage, but that civil laws on marriage should reflect the principle of equal rights under the law.”

Thank you Senator Feingold!
