Statement Regarding Prop. 8 Trial This Morning
STATEMENT REGARDING PROP. 8 TRIAL THIS MORNING
The Perry v. Schwarzenegger trial opened today with the introduction of videos and documents from the Prop. 8 campaign.
“We saw again today how the Prop. 8 campaign sought to link marriage equality to incest, polygamy, bestiality and pedophilia to justify the restriction of people’s civil rights. This clearly points to the discriminatory motivations and unconstitutionality of the initiative,” said Chad Griffin, Board President of the American Foundation for Equal Rights, which is leading the federal court challenge to Prop. 8.
