More than half a dozen Democratic Congressional leaders today signed onto Freedom to Marry’s “Democrats: Say I Do” campaign calling for a freedom to marry plank in the 2012 national platform of the Democratic Party.
The signers include three key contenders for the U.S. Senate from swing states: Tammy Baldwin (D-WI); Shelly Berkley (D-NV); and Martin Heinrich (D-NM).
Additional new signers include Ranking Democrat of the House Judiciary Committee John Conyers (D-MI); Judiciary Committee member Mike Quigley (D-IL); former Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee Chair Chris Van Hollen (D-MD); and Representative Jared Polis (D-CO).
