“Even before his first year in the Senate almost twenty years ago, Senator Kerry has been a friend to gay and lesbian families,” said Dave Noble, NSD Executive Director. “There has never been a presidential nominee who has held such a strong record of support for our community.”

“Our community will face a critical choice this election,” Noble continued. “We are faced with an incumbent who is actively campaigning and governing against our families. With this endorsement, we hope to begin the process of uniting our community behind a candidate who respects our families. We all need to work to elect John Kerry President."
