Although sizable majorities of Hispanic voters vote Democrat, they also are some of the strongest supporters of the marriage protection amendment. After two years of a Democratic-controlled Congress which has refused to consider the amendment, Hispanic voters will rally at the Democratic National Convention in Denver to press candidates to stand up for marriage. Key Latino leaders from across the country will join the Alliance for Marriage Foundation to host the event. “For far too long the votes of Latinos have been taken for granted,” said Rev. Sam Rodriguez, Jr., President of the National Hispanic Christian Leadership Conference and Advisory Board Member of the Alliance for Marriage Foundation. “As our numbers grow, our influence is growing, and it is time for leaders of both parties to put protecting marriage and strong family values at the center of their agenda. Candidates like to tout ‘family values’ on the stump, but then toss our values aside when they get to Washington. We’re not going to tolerate that any more.”"*
