Blue Jersey and Garden State Equality are making a renewed push for marriage equality in the state with the airing of two spots beginning tonight on local station News 12 New Jersey.
According to Blue Jersey, the first spot depicts “Mike and Jeff – a couple too busy taking care of their kids to listen to President Bush telling them why they should be banned from marrying.” The second spot I posted here last December. It's a spoof of the Mac vs. PC ads contrasting marriage and civil unions.
The ads are an effort to persuade the public that civil unions have fallen short and don't offer enough protections for same-sex couples, who deserve full marriage equality.
