First-term US Rep. Seth Moulton will march with OUTVets in the St. Patrick's parade in South Boston this Sunday, the group says.
Moulton, a Salem Democrat who is himself a Marine veteran of the second Iraq war, said he was proud to be part of the first LGBT group in the parade.
I'm incredibly proud to march with OUTVETS in Boston's St. Patrick's Day parade. Gay rights is the civil rights fight of our generation. We talked last weekend about the steady march toward freedom and justice with the anniversary of Selma. This is an extension of that march. We have made great progress, but we still have a long way to go.
