Sen. Mark Begich Backs Marriage

“I believe that same sex couples should be able to marry and should
have the same rights, privileges and responsibilities as any other
married couple. Government should keep
out of individuals’ personal lives—if someone wants to marry someone
they love, they should be able to. Alaskans are fed up with government
intrusion into our private lives, our daily business, and in the way we
manage our resources and economy.” – Sen. Mark Begich (D-AK), in a statement issued last night. Begich is the third Senate Democrat to endorse same-sex marriage within the last 48 hours. Got it in just under the wire, too.
