I support Paycheck Fairness Act's equal pay for women

Gomez appeared to be appealing to independent voters tonight by supporting the Paycheck Fairness Act, which calls for equal pay for women; by calling himself a "green Republican" and saying that "there are people in my party who deny science."

Repeal the Defense of Marriage Act

One area of unusual agreement among a Republican field was on the Defense of Marriage Act, which defines marriage as between one man and one woman for federal benefits. Massachusetts was the first state to implement gay marriage, in 2004. All three candidates said DOMA should be repealed. Gomez and Winslow support gay marriage. Sullivan opposes gay marriage, but says the definition of marriage should be left to the states. Source: Springfield Republican on 2013 MA Senate debates , Mar 28, 2013
