New Hampshire Freedom to Marry Believes GOP Leaving Door Open to Repeal of Marriage Equality This Session

Concord, NH – Following the House GOP press conference today, the executive director of New Hampshire Freedom to Marry, Mo Baxley, issued this statement:

“We are pleased again to hear the House majority leader say that gay marriage is not a priority this legislative session. Voters want their legislators to focus on the economy; they did not send people to Concord to rehash marriage equality. But we heard some wiggle room in today’s remarks, leaving the door open to bring up a repeal of marriage equality in the coming weeks. We are continuing our efforts to educate and engage all Granite Staters as planned to show that it’s not the role of government to take away rights from New Hampshire citizens and families.”
