Mayors officially Announce "Mayors for Marriage" campaign
Last week I mentioned that Jerry Sanders and Antonio Villaraigosa had teamed up with other mayors across the nation to launch an effort to back marriage equality. Freedom to marry has now officially launched the video from that US Conference of Mayors meeting last week:
You can see the full list of mayors that signed up for the campaign include many California mayors, from some of our biggest cities, LA, SD, Oakland and SF and a whole of assortment of interesting names (Redondo Beach, Chico, and San Luis Obispo).
The two biggest cities not on the list are also headed by Democrats as well. San Jose Mayor Chuck Reed is opposed to marriage equality, though he didn't publicly endorse Prop 8. Sacramento's Kevin Johnson who publicly opposed Prop 8, also, at least at last check, was playing the Obama game of not supporting constitutional amendments but opposing marriage equality.
