Equality California has a new ad, featuring Mary Kate, the teen daughter of lesbian moms Frances and Cynthia. They will be running it against an ad by Carrie Prejean, the former Miss California USA, during Sunday’s new Miss California USA pageant. EQCA explains:
Remember the uproar when former MISS CALIFORNIA USA Carrie Prejean said that she opposed marriage equality during the pageant? Rather than agree to EQCA’s invitation to meet with us and an LGBT family, she used her 15 minutes of fame to become the spokesmodel for the right-wing National Organization for Marriage.
Now, the MISS CALIFORNIA USA pageant has offered EQCA and Ms. Prejean 30 seconds each during this Sunday’s broadcast. We are showing an ad featuring Mary Kate, the teenage daughter of lesbian moms, who talks from the heart about her family and how discrimination in marriage hurts real people, including children.
Here’s the ad:
Brava, Mary Kate!
