Matt DePerno wants to roll back LGBTQIA+ rights in Michigan

We’re fighting like hell to keep him away from the AG’s office. [Democratic Attorneys General Association]( {NAME}, First they came for abortion access, now they’re coming for marriage equality. Matt DePerno has indicated he doesn’t believe in marriage equality – threatening to roll back LGBTQIA+ rights for Michiganders. Matt DePerno already had a well-documented history of backwards, dangerous policy positions, and now, he’s recently said that he believes marriage can ONLY be defined as a union between one man and one woman. DePerno wants to take away what so many of us have fought hard for the right to have.

The legality of same-sex marriage is guaranteed in a similar way that reproductive rights were in Roe v. Wade, and we saw how little precedent matters to this conservative Supreme Court. In stark contrast to DePerno, AG Nessel is a proven advocate for the LGBTQIA+ community. She fought hard in the fight for marriage equality herself, arguing to lift Michigan’s ban on same-sex marriage at the state level and even appealing to the Supreme Court in Obergefell v. Hodges – the case that legalized marriage equality nationwide. We can not let Republican AGs and candidates tear down the progress we’ve fought for decades to have. [The stakes could not be higher.
