b*****d 发帖数: 61690 | 1 Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid has a personal reason for wanting to ban
discrimination in the workplace.
"My niece is a lesbian," Reid told the Huffington Post on Wednesday. "She's
a school teacher. Her employment shouldn't be affected with that. We should
have a law that says that, not just the good graces of wherever you work."
Reid's revelation is just the latest example of a member of Congress
explaining a personal reason behind a political stance. Sen. Rob Portman, R-
Ohio, announced in March that he was changing his position to support
marriage for same-sex couples because his son is gay. | r*****3 发帖数: 6442 | 2 dick cheney's daughter gets married |
