“This past Monday, NOM launched a major statewide television advertisement campaign designed to educate and mobilize marriage supporters throughout the islands. We’re also phoning tens of thousands of marriage supporters in Hawaii to urge them to contact their state representatives. We’ve had to virtually empty our coffers to take these steps, but we are determined to do everything possible to …

“The refusal of the New Jersey Supreme Court to order a stay of the same-sex ‘marriage’ ruling was wrong, and the latest example of an activist judiciary running amok, substituting their views for those of the people of the state. Still, we are extremely disappointed in Governor Chris Christie for withdrawing the state’s appeal of the underlying decision, effectively throwing …

Right Wing Watch reports: Brown didn’t say what he was in Russia for, but we can guess that he was at the World Congress of Families’ planning meeting along with anti-gay activist Scott Lively. Brown is an enthusiastic supporter of the group, which pushes anti-gay and anti-choice measures abroad and has been a strong cheerleader for Russia’s recent anti-gay crackdown. …

“It is extremely disappointing that the New Jersey Supreme Court has allowed the ruling of an activist judge to stand pending its appeal through the court system. The definition of marriage is something that should be decided by the people of New Jersey themselves, not by any judge or court. New Jerseyans should have the right to vote on this …

“In North Carolina, a lawsuit has been pending before the courts to strike down the state’s Marriage Amendment — a law passed just last May and by 61% of the popular vote! But just this week North Carolina’s Attorney General, tasked with defending the voters’ will in this case, compromised his integrity in that role by formally announcing his support …

A JMG reader wrote this morning to report getting a robocall from Brown in support of Lonegan.

“Steve Lonegan is a champion for marriage, life and religious liberty and would be a leader in the US Senate for New Jersey families. He’s a tenacious campaigner and an even more effective public official. He will get immediately to work to begin to restore the direction of the country. Corey Booker expected a coronation, not a close contest. He’s …

Brian Brown stopped by the Family Research Council’s booth at the Values Voter Summit today to chat with FRC vice president Peter Sprigg, who appeared on national television in 2010 to declare that Lawrence V Texas had been “wrongly decided” and therefore homosexuality should have remained a crime. Sprigg is probably congratulating Brown for his successful collaboration with the Russian …

Yesterday we learned that NOM watchdog Fred Karger has reached out to federal officials, asking that they investigate Brian Brown for possibly violating the Logan Act, which forbids citizens from collaborating with foreign governments against the interests of the United States. Five days after Brown’s speech to the Duma, they passed the bill which bans anybody from a country with …

Fred Karger, the eternal thorn in NOM’s backside, has written to Secretary of State John Kerry and Attorney General Eric Holder with a request that they investigate Brian Brown for collaborating with the Russian government. Such an action, Karger argues, could violate the Logan Act, which makes it a crime for independent citizens to confer with foreign governments against the …

Posted today to NOM’s blog: In England, a recent report showed that nearly two-thirds of MP’s believe that supporting gay ‘marriage’ is a ‘vote loser.’ And reports from local Conservative associations show a rapid decline in membership, with gay marriage seen as one of the reasons. Now even the Prime Minister, David Cameron, is saying that he regrets “forcing” marriage …

“We are appreciative and grateful to the governor and the attorney general for waging a vigorous defense. Our position is that the good people of New Jersey be trusted with this decision. Let’s have a conversation, a dialogue, a debate. [However our coalition] is not unified in its position on the consequences of same sex marriage. I personally do not …

Right Wing Watch reports that at the invitation of Russia’s legislature, NOM president Brian Brown traveled there with a group of far-right French Catholic anti-gay activists to collaborate on the bill that bans gay couples from adopting.  The DUMA passed the bill five days after Brown’s visit. On June 13, 2013, just days after the Russian Duma passed laws banning …

The New Jersey Family Policy Council and New Jersey Family First are two divisions of the same group and their mouthpiece is “ex-gay” crackpot Greg Quinlan. So basically this coalition is Catholics and “ex-gays.”

Brown elaborates on NOM’s blog: The story to which Karger is referring is indeed a testament to how religious liberty works – and Fred’s being miffed about it is an ominous indication of what would happen to religious congregations such as this one, which have the right to hire and fire their own clergy personnel, if Karger and other same-sex …

“This is another outrageous example of judicial activism. An activist judge has overreached her authority and chosen to impose same-sex ‘marriage’ on the entire state of New Jersey. Judge Jacobson has trampled on the right of the people of New Jersey to define marriage, a right that the Supreme Court has upheld in the very case she misuses to redefine …

The Catholic Conference of Illinois, the Illinois Family Institute, and NOM are jointly promoting October 23rd as “Defend Marriage Lobby Day” at the state capitol.  Brian Brown writes: You may have heard media reports in the past week that the sponsors of the same-sex ‘marriage’ bill are reconsidering their strategy of calling the bill for a vote during the veto …
