Heather in Hollywood.

Heather Tom arrives at the Love Honor Cherish gala to raise funds to protect equality by defeating Prop 8, at The Mondrian, West Hollywood (October 12, 2008). Prop 8 seeks to eliminate the rights of same sex couples to marry. Heather was interviewed by Out in Hollywood. Here's what she had to say: "I think it's really about equality, it's about equality and fairness. This whole election season is really these two things. This is really about providing rights and benefits to those who, at this point, are the only group that's it's legal to discriminate against and that's wrong. We look back at the times that interracial marriage was illegal and we're embarrassed by that. I think right now is the time to recify another embarrassment."

What would Katie say? "I DO... vow to love, honor and cherish my niece's husband." That troll (Katie, not Heather)!
