Democrats are set to include a pro-gay marriage plank in their convention platform for the first time in history, party sources confirm to POLITICO. The language was approved unanimously by a 15-member platform draft committee, and now heads for approval by the full platform committee in August.
The party’s Platform Drafting Committee agreed, unanimously, to approve the language at a meeting this weekend in Minneapolis.
A source in the meeting said the decision was “not controversial.”
Democrats are assuming a LOT...there are a lot of ministers, church members, that are registered democrats that do not agree with this...
It will definitely be interesting to see this evolve...
