President Cheryl Jacques
July 10, 2004

"Just days after his administration announced new terrorist threats, President Bush took to the airwaves to promote a discriminatory amendment ranking dead last on the American people's priority list."

"President Bush and his Congressional allies should focus on the priorities of the American people, not the agenda of their extremist base."

"The Federal Marriage Amendment is discriminatory, unnecessary and it undermines our Constitution."

"President Bush and his extremist allies are trying to distract the American people from the serious challenges facing America. The American people will see through these cynical politics."
