AG Dewine To Ohio Supreme Court: Dismiss Lawsuit Against Freedom To Marry


freedom_to_marry_round.jpgCOLUMBUS - FreedomOhio CEO Mary Jo Kilroy applauded Ohio Attorney General Mike DeWine today for asking the Ohio Supreme Court to dismiss a legal challenge seeking to stop the Freedom To Marry movement from trying to end marriage discrimination in Ohio.

'The Ohio Attorney General and the Ohio Ballot Board unanimously approved our petition language to give two loving adults the freedom to marry in Ohio," Kilroy said. "While a few extremists are filing frivolous lawsuits, thousands of our volunteers are going directly to the people to collect signatures for marriage equality."

"Our supporters are going to our website, www.freedomOhio.com, where they can follow a few simple steps to signup to volunteer and download a petition to put a freedom to marry amendment before voters in November, 2013," Kilroy said.

Lawyers for Freedom To Marry Ohio will also file a dismiss and expedite motion with the Ohio Supreme Court.
