Kathleen Sebelius on Civil Rights

Democratic KS Governor


No Constitutional amendment against same-sex marriage

Sebelius did not support an April 2005 amendment to the Kansas Constitution that made same-sex marriage in the state unconstitutional. Sebelius said she supported the existing state law outlawing same-sex marriage, viewed it as sufficient, and therefore opposed the constitutional amendment. The amendment passed with 70 percent voter approval.

There is still injustice in America

There is still injustice in America. Even today, many Americans go to bed hungry. Many American children do not have an adequate opportunity for education. And as friendship among Americans of all races, colors, and religions has flourished, we must acknowledge that our search for true equality is not yet complete. Yes, although we are here to honor a great step on the path toward freedom, we must recognize that much of the path still lies ahead.
