Positions of the 2014 DC Mayoral Candidates on Social Issues

You can find the following and more positions on our DC Mayoral Candidate social issue positions comparison chart at www.urbanlifetraining.org

 DC Mayoral candidates David Catania, Muriel Bowser, Carol Schwartz and Bruce Majors to not support defining marriage as being between only one man and one woman.

David Catania and Muriel Bowser both support the legalization of the growing and possession of marijuana in the District of Columbia (Proposition 71).

Only Bruce Majors bothered to answer the Urban Life Training Social Issues Questionnaire as to whether or not they will support a Right Choices Youth Prevention Corps that promotes sexual abstinence before marriage.  Based on our current and previous interactions with both Councilmembers Catania and Bowser it is unlikely that either will support such an effort.
