Video: TWO’s Wayne Besen on Rachel Maddow Discussing Romney’s Anti-Gay Donations

by Wayne Besen - Open-Publishing - Saturday 28 January 2012

Last night, TWO’s Wayne Besen appeared on MSNBC’s Rachel Maddow Show to discuss how former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney indirectly helped fund so-called "pray away the gay" therapy.

The Tyler Charitable Foundation, set up and funded by the Romneys, donated $10,000 in 2006 to the Massachusetts Family Institute, which promotes the ex-gay programs. The charity also donated $25,000 to the Becket Fund for Religious Liberty, which opposes marriage equality and has compared LGBT activists to the terrorist group al Qaeda.

If you appreciate our advocacy fighting "ex-gay" and anti-gay organizations, please consider a tax-deductible contribution today. We can only keep speaking out with your generous help.
