During the campaign Kerry even said that he lead the fight to filibuster any Supreme Court nominee who would overturn Rowe v. Wade, and he kept his promise.
Kerry has also been an outspoken supporter of gay rights. During the campaign, Bill Clinton even advised Kerry to support the anti-gay marriage amendments in states where they were on the ballot, arguing that this would help Kerry pick up those states. Kerry refused to compromise principles in such a manner. Kerry has also been a leading opponent of measures such as the Defense of Marriage Act.
