Actor Josh Charles is the latest
celebrity to record an ad for the Human Rights Campaign's (HRC)
Americans for Marriage Equality campaign.
The 40-year-old Charles currently plays
lawyer Will Gardner on the CBS legal drama The Good Wife.
“I play a lawyer on TV. You don't
need a law degree to understand fundamental fairness. Everyone
should have the right to marry the person they love,” Charles says
in his 30-second ad. (The video is embedded in the right panel of

Similar HRC campaigns have focused on
winning marriage equality in a specific state, previously New York
and currently Maryland.
