    Marriage Equality, Part 1

    The issue of same-sex marriage is one that speaks to progressive values of fairness and equality. Only two Democratic presidential candidates (Mike Gravel, Dennis Kucinich) have voiced support for marriage equality, with the remainder favoring civil unions.

    Should DFA join the fight to end this two-tiered society? Join the discussion and make your voice heard! Our show tonight focuses on the battle to bring equality to New Jersey, where civil unions were enacted this year and are already proving to be separate-and-unequal. Our scheduled guests are:

    • Steven Goldstein, Chair of Garden State Equality. A few minutes after civil unions became law in New Jersey, Steven married his partner Daniel, with a vow to fight for full marriage equality. Steven also sits on the Civil Union Review Commission which was set up by the state to monitor the effectiveness of the law and whether it truly provides the same benefits as marriage.
    • DFA-endorsed & openly gay candidates Gina Genovese for NJ Senate and Ed Zipprich for Red Bank (NJ) Town Council. Gina and Ed were both inspired by Howard Dean and DFA to run for elected office. In 2005, as Long Hill Township mayor, Gina became the highest-ranked openly gay elected official in the state of New Jersey.

    As always, we'll take calls from the DFA community. Tune in to hear your fellow DFA members, or call in & let us know what's on your mind.
