Mo'Nique supports marriage equality in Maryland

Academy Award-winning actress Mo’Nique is continuing her fight to advocate for marriage equality in Maryland.

Yesterday, she sent a fundraising email on behalf of the Human Rights Campaign, urging recipients to support the fight for marriage equality in the Free State. The Maryland native previously recorded a video for HRC’s Americans for Marriage Equality campaign. She also delivered a similar message for the Marylanders for Marriage Equality campaign.

In her email, Mo’Nique calls out the deceptive tactics that the opposition is engaging in to roll back equality:

“Nothing is more difficult than hearing attacks being made on anyone, especially my fellow Marylanders, however anti-equality forces are not going to make it easy…They say that children will be hurt by having two moms or two dads and that religious institutions are under threat. You and I both know that simply is not true.”
