Earlier today, Washington United for Marriage announced a historic donation to the Approve Referendum 74 campaign from Amazon founder Jeff Bezos and wife, Mackenzie. The couple’s $2.5 million gift is believed to be the largest gift ever donated to a marriage equality campaign to date.
via The New York Times:
With the gift, the couple have doubled the money available to the proponents of Referendum 74, which would legalize same-sex marriage in the state by affirming a law that passed the Legislature this year.
Proponents of the effort in Washington State called it a game-changing gift that gives them a fighting chance in November.
Paid for by Washington United for Marriage.
