Equality North Carolina has launched a
PAC targeting lawmakers who support the state's recently approved
constitutional amendment banning gay marriage.
Despite Equality North Carolina's
campaign to derail the measure, 61 percent of North Carolina voters
approved Amendment One on May 8.
A video to support the Equality
North Carolina Action Fund throws back the assertions of
Amendment One supporters that the measure was not personal, but just
politics.
In the video, North Carolina voices are
heard saying: “It was politics; not the heart of North Carolina,
not our future, and not who we really are. … In politics, you pick
a vulnerable target. Equality North Carolina's PAC has identified
the most promising opportunities this election. These are the races
we can win. We can replace these legislators with allies and slowly
we can change the makeup of the General Assembly so they don't get
the chance to do this again. There's simply no more effective way
for us to move forward.” (The video is embedded on this page.
