The Southern Poverty Law Center has now listed NOM as one of 18 ANTI-GAY HATE GROUPS
National Organization for Marriage
Princeton, N.J.
The National Organization for Marriage (NOM), which is dedicated to fighting same-sex marriage in state legislatures, was organized in 2007 by conservative syndicated columnist Maggie Gallagher and Princeton University politics professor Robert George. George is an influential Christian thinker who co-authored the 2009 "Manhattan Declaration," a manifesto developed after a New York meeting of conservative church leaders that "promises resistance to the point of civil disobedience against any legislation that might implicate their churches or charities in abortion, embryo-destructive research or same sex marriage."
NOM's first public campaign was in 2008, supporting California's Proposition 8, which sought to invalidate same-sex marriage in that state. It was widely mocked, including in a parody by satirist Stephen Colbert, for the "Gathering Storm" video ad it produced at the time. Set to somber music and a dark and stormy background, the ad had actors expressing fears that gay activism would "take away" their rights, change their lifestyle, and force homosexuality on their kids.
63% of NH residents do not support revoking the 2009 Marriage Equality Law, but some NH Republicans and their leadership will do the bidding of a National Hate Group rather than representing the wishes of their constituents.
