2020 AZ Senatorial race: on Civil Rights


Mark Kelly: Wrong that LGBTQ people can be married and get fired for it

Q: Support same-sex marriage?

Mark Kelly: Yes. "It's wrong that LGBTQ Arizonans can be married one day and fired for that marriage the next day."

Martha McSally: Mixed. Said in 2013 she believed marriage is between one man and one woman, but later accepted same-sex marriage as the law.

Mark Kelly: Demand accountability on deep systemic issues with racism

Calls for defunding police--moving government funding from law enforcement to community services--have been loud around the country. "We have some deep systemic issues here with racism in the country, and we've got to demand accountability," Kelly said. "There needs to be a justice system that doesn't discriminate against anyone because of their race, but I do no agree that we should defund the police."
