sep 12, 2012 - Same-Sex Marriage supported by Democrats
Description:
At the Democratic National Convention on September 12, 2012, the Democrats were the first major political party in America to support the LGBTQ's rights for same-sex marriage.
This was significant because the LGBTQs have been facing a lot of discrimination, and regulations that did not give them equality. For example, many people did not view LGBTQ as equal beings, and the fact that the Democrats supported the LGBTQs gave huge support to their fight.
Quote: "The Democrats would become the first major party to embrace same-sex marriage. "
