In that sense, this move to back the Equality Act is more surprising than Olson's decision to back, and fight for, marriage equality.
-
To be clear, since people seem confused, I am not talking about, nor do I question, Ted Olson's support for LGBT people's equality. [1/2]
-
[2/2] I am talking about the diff b/w his support for asserting constitutional principles & his support for new, broad fed'l legislation.
-
This is support ~of a different type~ and not the type of arena I'd necessarily have expected him to enter on LGBT rights. If anything ...
-
... it goes to show how much he really has taken on the issue of LGBT equal rights as something central to his efforts in the public arena.
