Obama endorses Wash. state marriage equality referendum

Source: The Stranger

A statement just now from Paul Bell, the Washington Press Secretary for Obama for America:

While the president does not weigh in on every single ballot measure in every state, the president believes in treating everyone fairly and equally, with dignity and respect. Washington’s same-sex marriage law would treat all Washington couples equally, and that is why the President supports a vote to approve Referendum 74.
