Sen. Arlen Specter: Time to Repeal DOMA and DADT

Sen. Arlen Specter writes at the Huffington Post: “The time has come to repeal the 1996 Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA). Enacted 13 years ago when the idea of same sex marriage was struggling for acceptance, the Act is a relic of a more tradition-bound time and culture . . . Finally, the military’s Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell policy is outdated, and should be rescinded entirely.”
