Mary Bono Mack comes out in support of gay marriage

80 prominent Republicans, including former Congresswoman Mary Bono Mack, have signed a brief in support of gay marriage.

The brief will be submitted to the Supreme Court this week in support of a suit that aims to strike down California’s Proposition 8, a 2008 ban on gay marriage.

Arguments on that case are scheduled for March 26. Followed by arguments in the similar Defense ofMarriageAct suit the following day.
