Link: ProudParenting.com

Excerpt:

shepherd98767 Liberal icon and celebrated actress Cybill Shepherd is working closely on the set of The L Word with her daughter Clementine Ford. Cybill plays Clementine's mom on the show.

[...]

Shepherd has been a friend of the lesbian and gay community for decades. Always a proponent of civil rights such as pro-choice, Cybill spoke up about same-sex unions in a Spring 2000 interview with Larry King, "I think to infringe on anybody's civil rights is a crime, and I absolutely believe they (lesbians and gays) should have the right to marry. I think it's none of the government's business, frankly."

Freedom to Marry

  • All across the country, in every state, in many families, citizens are talking honestly and thoughtfully about whether and how to recognize a life commitment made by two women or two men in love. Americans are trying to find their way to understanding that our nation is currently a quilt of many different types of families, each of them working hard to live their lives, raise their children and contribute to the growth and security of their communities.

    At Freedom to Marry, you will find a library of information to help you engage in this national conversation. Make yourself at home and understand why we must fight to end discrimination in marriage and why marriage should be legal for same-sex couples. Also, find out how you can Get Informed, Get Involved and Carry the Conversation Forward by sharing what you learn with your own family and community.

The Legal Marriage Alliance of Washington

  •

    The Legal Marriage Alliance of Washington (LMA) was created in October 1995 to advocate for legal marriages for same-sex couples in the State of Washington. We have been very much involved in the history of the marriage equality issue in our state and continue to participate openly and actively in the public arena wherever this issue is raised. LMA's function is primarily educational, although we work closely with other community groups on political and other activities associated with our cause. LMA is well versed in the issues and can be a good resource for reporters and others who are researching marriage equality issues in depth.
