A New Group of Republicans Forms to Support Gay Marriage in Oregon

The group just kicked off its efforts with an event in Portland last week with NBA player Jason Collins, the first openly gay NBA player.

 

Dan Occhipinti with Freedom Oregon says they are fighting for equal rights.

 

"And this is the new guard.  This is a lot of people, a lot of Republicans who are liberty minded citizens.  They hold the traditional Republican values, but also believe those values are consistent with freedom to marry who you want to marry. If you can pay taxes and die for your country, so you should be able to marry who you love."

 

Freedom Oregon is an independent organization, but is coordinating with Oregonians United for Marriage
