Revelers show support for President Obama in New York City Gay Pride March on Jun 24, 2012, New York City.
An Obama ad said the Republican nominee would deny gay couples the right to adopt children together. Paul Ryan has taken such a position in the past, but Romney supports gay couples’ right to adopt. “If two people of the same gender want to live together, want to have a loving relationship, or even adopt a child – in my state, individuals of the same sex were able to adopt children,” he said in May. “In my view, that’s something that people have a right to do.”
