Cory Booker Is Running for President, Loves Gay Weddings
Booker, who is straight, has a solid record on all of the major LGBTQ+ issues. He supported same-sex marriage as far back as 2012 — years before it was legal in the U.S. — and when New Jersey legalized same-sex marriage in 2013, Booker officiated the very first same-sex wedding ceremonies in the state.
As a senator, Booker introduced a bill that seeks to reintroduce lapsed bans on conversion therapy, and he supported Senator Bernie Sanders’ Medicare for All bill, which would expand queer and trans people’s access to life-saving medical care if passed. He also questioned Trump appointees Jeff Sessions and Mike Pompeo on their anti-LGBTQ+ records during their respective nomination processes.
The Senator, however, has a less than than savory history with charter schools and corporate donors (though that’s not necessarily bad for LGBTQ+ people so much as it is bad for everyone ... depending on how far left your political compass lands).
