Rising Tide for Same Sex Marriage
|Rising Tide for Same Sex Marriage
By Michael Boyajian
The Fishkill Democratic Committee gathered recently for its monthly meeting and to hear from Didi Barrett who is expected to run against New York State Senator Stephen Saland an opponent of same sex marriage. Didi Barrett is important to the gay community because she is a candidate who has pledged to support same sex marriage and because she is the first of many candidates who will ultimately be running this year in support of marriage equality making it a movement unseen since the days of abolition. After the debacle of same sex marriage in the state senate last year the gay community vowed to field candidates against all those who had opposed the measure.
