New Jersey Senate President Steve Sweeney (D) on Monday apologized in a speech on the Senate floor for casting a vote against marriage equality in January 2010.
“Seventeen months ago, I stood up here and made the biggest mistake of my legislative career,” Sweeney said. “I made a decision based purely on political calculations not to vote in support of marriage equality. I failed in my responsibility as leader of this house of government to actually lead. I was wrong.”
