Gay+Rights+-+Kucinich

="We cannot have states making separate rules with respect to basic human rights."=



Kucinich supports gay marriage and is against the definition of marriage being "between a man and a woman." More or less, he believes that all citizens (no matter their orientation) deserve equal treatment under the law and should be allowed to choose who they want to marry, no matter their gender. He has also voted for the expansion of hate crime laws against homosexual couples and against banning same-sex couple adoption.

//"Those who happen to be gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgendered, these are God's children. They should have the same rights as everyone else. There should be a federal law that would allow gay couples to be married."

"I believe that equality of opportunity should be afforded to all Americans regardless of race, color, creed or sexual orientation. For that reason I support the right of gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgendered persons to have the full protections and rights afforded under civil law including the right to marry the person of their choice."//
