Maine AG on Gay Marriage Law's Effect on Schools: "I have found none"

The state's same-sex marriage law has no bearing on what can be taught in public schools, Attorney General Janet Mills said Thursday.  Mills examined the issue at the request of Education Commissioner Susan Gendron, who had been fielding questions from school officials and the media. The issue has been a central part of the Yes on 1 campaign, which is seeking to repeal the state law that allows gay and lesbian people to marry. "I have scoured Maine laws relating to the education of its children for any references to marriage in the public school curricula," Mills wrote in her opinion. "I have found none."
