Marriage Equality advocates have unveiled a new television campaign highlighting the importance of marriage equality to families across Australia. (The ad can be viewed here and broadcast quality here).

The new ad campaign sends the message that “marriage is about family, everyone’s family”:

“Our campaign will send the message that marriage is about strengthening the bonds within families, and that includes the growing number of families with gay and lesbian members,” Mr Greenwich said.

The ad features Ivan Hinton his partner Chris and their extended families. Mr Hinton said his motivation behind doing the ad was to show that his family was just like everyone else’s.

“Marriage is a unique way to strengthen family bonds and to bring two families together, and I don’t understand why some people want to deny this to me, my husband and our families.”

“I love my family, I love my husband and I want our families to be treated the same as other families.”
