I believe that the Republican Party must be an inclusive, big-tent party that will always stand for fairness over discrimination. I am honored to work with Log Cabin Republicans and to be recognized for my work to repeal 'Don't Ask, Don't Tell,' and to help provide Americans full protection under the law against discrimination.
