Mitch Landrieu on Civil Rights

 

 


First Louisiana big city mayor to support same-sex marriage

Lambda Legal's South Central Regional office will award its 2016 Partners for Equality Award to Mayor Mitch Landrieu. Mayor Landrieu was the first mayor of a major Louisiana city to support the rights of same-sex couples to marry. He stood firm against former Gov. Bobby Jindal's effort to pass so-called religious freedom laws that would have legalized discrimination against same-sex Louisianans, and he signed an executive order committing the city to full non-discrimination protections.
