HRC President Stresses Romney’s Anti-Gay Rights Positions

Human Rights Campaign President Joe Solmonese stressed that President Obama and Mitt Romney are far apart on gay rights on MSNBC’s “Andrea Mitchell Reports” Monday. Though Solmonese would like to see Obama be more forceful on gay rights, he stressed Obama’s accomplishments to expand rights, and how far ahead of Romney those actions are.

We’re going to step into a big trap if we get all focused on the distinction between the vice president’s words and the president’s and don’t focus on the difference between Barack Obama and Mitt Romney because the difference between the president and Gov. Romney could be not be more stark. He signed a pledge to pass the federal marriage amendment. He doesn’t believe that we should have repealed ‘Don’t ask, don’t tell.’ And to me, you know, what I hope the community is mindful of and I think we are smart enough not to lose sight of this is the fact that this is not about Barack Obama or Mitt Romney. It’s about us. And these elections are a choice.

The Human Rights Campaign endorsed Obama’s re-election bid last year.
