Unitarian Universalist President Celebrates Victory for Marriage Equality
June 14, 2007
Statement from Rev. William SinkfordPresident, Unitarian Universalist Association of Congregations
Today's decision by Massachusetts lawmakers to defeat the marriage amendment is a cause for great rejoicing. On behalf of the Unitarian Universalist Association, I want to thank the legislators who did the right thing by preserving the Massachusetts Constitution and keeping our marriage laws free from discrimination. This decision makes a profound difference in the lives of thousands of couples and families in this state, and it shines as a beacon of hope for same-sex couples across the country. Marriage is a civil right.
