It’s important to note that it’s not the “New York State GOP” that’s directly behind this terrible mailer. Grisanti himself is one of the brave statesmen and stateswomen who stood up to negative voices in 2011 and voted in support of the NY State Marriage Equality Bill. Without the bipartisan support of the GOP in the NY Senate, New York might still be working to pass the marriage bill.
Thank you for all you do.
