Prof. Carpenter on Same-Sex Marriage in Star Tribune

Professor Dale Carpenter had an op-ed in Minneapolis Star Tribune arguing in favor of same-sex marriage in Minnesota. He argues that recognizing same-sex marriage will help gay couples and the thousands of children they are raising in the state. He also argues that it will help reinforce the importance of marriage. Carpenter's commentary is a response to an op-ed by Minneapolis-St. Paul Archbishop John Nienstedt supporting a constitutional amendment banning same-sex marriage.
