Schwarzenegger: Gays to Boost California Economy
by Trey C. on May 23, 2008
The Terminator hopes California’s legalization of Gay marriage will boost the economy, according to the Sacramento Bee.
“You know, I’m wishing everyone good luck with their marriages and I hope that California’s economy is booming because everyone is going to come here and get married,” said Schwarzenegger, prompting laughs and applauses.
The San Francisco Convention and Visitors Bureau anticipates a tourism boom in the city this summer, said spokeswoman Angela Jackson. The bureau’s Web site promotes a gay travel section and now explains that same-sex couples are “officially allowed to marry in the state of California.”
