NOM Promised to Hide Maine’s Hate Donors. Too Bad!

maggiehand

As if it weren’t clear enough, the National Organization for Marriage must disclose its donor list, which funneled $1.6 million into Stand For Marriage Maine’s bigotry effort. Tossing out NOM’s own effort to keep its names hidden by suing the State of Maine, a federal judge decided yesterday: too bad, fess up. Why is NOM so aggressively trying to keep its names a secret? Perhaps because it promised donors their names would never be revealed. By giving NOM your anti-marriage money, instead of S4MM directly, you would be able to protect your name from being added to history’s list of active bigots. Well, looks like that’s not working out so well.
