Gay Son Doesn’t Change Lawmaker’s View of Gay Marriage

Rep. Matt Salmon (R-AZ) told KTVK-TV that he does not support gay marriage despite having a gay son.

Said Salmon: “I don’t support gay marriage. My son and I have had a lot of dialogue about it. I will say this: you know, my son is by far one of the most important people in my life. I love him more than I can say.”

He added: “My view is while I don’t believe we should be vitriolic and try to enact harmful policies, by the same token, I’m just not there as far as believing in my heart that we should change 2,000 years of social policy in favor of a redefinition of the family.”
