Liz Cheney
Rep. Liz Cheney (R-Wyo.) in a new interview said she was wrong for opposing same-sex marriage in 2013, a policy stance that broke with her father and her sister, who is gay, reports The Hill.
Cheney was asked about her previous opposition to same-sex marriage during an interview with Lesley Stahl on CBS’s 60 Minutes that was released on Sunday.
“I was wrong. I was wrong,” Cheney said in a transcript of the interview.
“I love my sister very much. I love her family very much. And I was wrong. It’s a very personal issue and very personal for my family. I believe that my dad was right. And my sister and I have had that conversation,” she said.
Their father, Vice President Dick Cheney, had broken with many in his party by supporting same-sex marriage, saying in 2009, “I think, you know, freedom means freedom for everyone.”
