Charlie Releases "Brothers" to Mark 10 Year Anniversary of Gay Marriage

Please take a moment to view "Brothers," a web video featuring Charlie's younger brother Alex recalling how Charlie supported him when he "came out" the the family in 1981.  

"Tip O'Neill once said that 'all politics is local,' but for me the issue of marriage equality is personal," said Charlie Baker. "As we approach the 10 year anniversary of gay marriage, I am incredibly grateful that Massachusetts made it possible for my brother, and thousands of other gay men and women, to legally marry the person they love. I'm proud that our state has served as a national example for tolerance and equality."

This weekend marks the ten-year anniversary of legal gay marriage in Massachusetts. Alex Baker and his husband have been married for ten years this June and together for twenty.
