As secretary of state, Clinton made a historic human rights speech commemorating International Human Rights Day delivered at the United Nations in Geneva, Switzerland.
She made it clear that the fair and equal treatment of LGBT people worldwide is a moral imperative, and a priority and legitimate concern in U.S. foreign policy. She called upon all governments to respect the human rights of their LGBT citizens. You can watch that historic speech here.
Meanwhile, a new poll out today from ABC News/Washington Post shows support for marriage equality at an all-time high. It found that 58 percent of Americans now say it should be legal for same-sex couples to wed. Full details here.
