The Boss has reared his power in the New Jersey marriage equality debate, and it plays favorably to our fight for equality. Bruce Springsteen's message of support for marriage equality just went up on his website, and follows below. (Warning: It may leave you swooning for this hetero-ally.)
A BRIEF STATEMENT FROM BRUCE
Like many of you who live in New Jersey, I’ve been following the progress of the marriage-equality legislation currently being considered in Trenton. I’ve long believed in and have always spoken out for the rights of same sex couples and fully agree with Governor Corzine when he writes that, “The marriage-equality issue should be recognized for what it truly is — a civil rights issue that must be approved to assure that every citizen is treated equally under the law.” I couldn’t agree more with that statement and urge those who support equal treatment for our gay and lesbian brothers and sisters to let their voices be heard now.
We traced an imaginary heart in the air with our index fingers after reading that. Thanks, Bruce!
