The NAACP Constitution affirmatively states our objective to ensure the \u201cpolitical, education, social and economic equality\u201d of all people. Therefore, the NAACP has opposed and will continue to oppose any national, state, local policy or legislative initiative that seeks to codify discrimination or hatred into the law or to remove the Constitutional rights of LGBT citizens. We support marriage equality consistent with equal protection under the law provided under the Fourteenth Amendment of the United States Constitution.  Further, we strongly affirm the religious freedoms of all people as protected by the First Amendment.<\/p>\n<p><cite>Article adapted by Proud Parenting from original press release<\/cite><\/p>\n<div class=\"fb-comments\" data-href=\"https:\/\/proudparenting.com\/node\/16874\" data-num-posts=\"2\" data-width=\"470\"><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>At a meeting of the 103-year old civil rights group\u2019s board of directors, the NAACP voted to support marriage equality<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":17,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"ngg_post_thumbnail":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[64],"tags":[689],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v22.3 -
