Issue Position: Equality

Issue Position

Mike firmly believes in President Abraham Lincoln's vision, shared nearly 150 years ago -- that our country is on an evolutionary path to full equality for all Americans and that our fight for human rights is ongoing. Whether it's fighting for marriage equality, fighting against senseless discrimination, or fighting on behalf of those who cannot defend themselves, Mike believes that we must be guided by doing what's right, what's fair, and what's just. Mike, whose first co-sponsorship in the House was a bill to strengthen federal hate crimes legislation, believes it is our moral obligation to ensure justice for all, and not allow race, gender, religion, or sexual orientation to divide us.
