Governor Schwarzenegger Speaks at Log Cabin Event

Los Angeles, CA—June 29, 2006

Los Angeles – An overflow crowd of over 375 people joined special guests Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger and first lady Maria Shriver at an event to support the work of Log Cabin Republicans.  In a rousing speech, Schwarzenegger declared that he was “committed to being a Governor for all Californians” and was “proud to stand side by side with Log Cabin in their work to offer basic fairness for gay and lesbian citizens.”  He went on to say, “A person should only be limited by his dreams and not by his background, and not by his heritage and not by his sexual orientation.”  He went on to say, “We are united in the values of love, tolerance, and understanding…working together we can create a better future for California where everybody matters and every family counts.”

Log Cabin endorsed and campaigned for Arnold Schwarzenegger in the 2003 recall election and continues to support his efforts to bring people together to build an even brighter future for the great state of California.  “When he took the oath of office, Arnold Schwarzenegger said he would be governor of all the people-and he reinforced that inclusive message in his first-ever address to a gay and lesbian organization,” added Guerriero.
