Garret Graves: Defend Louisiana's definition of traditional marriage

Restore the founding principles that made America great
Get government out of our lives
Promote Louisiana values

President Obama has used executive orders and other venues to trample on Louisiana values-- pro-life, traditional marriage & gun rights. In Congress, I will fight to protect the sanctity of human life, defend Louisiana's definition of marriage, and work to return power back to the states so that they can determine their own course and destiny.
