Asked: Where Do Candidates For Governor
Stand On Gay Marriage? |
"I do not support gay
marriage. I believe in the sacrament of marriage
between one man as husband and one woman as wife. I
also believe this institution is the foundation of
the family and the basic building block of society
and should therefore be protected in law as the only
form of marriage that is sanctioned and recognized
by government policy. As a U.S. Congressman, I voted
to defend traditional marriage - and for the Defense
of Marriage Act - in 1996.
I stand by my vote and
will not support the legalization of same-sex unions
in Arizona." |
