Right now, too many people with disabilities are put in a position where getting married can actually put their benefits or services at risk, and that's something we really do need to fix. As governor, I work to protect marriage equality while also pushing for policies that ensure people don't lose critical things they may need. Thank you. Thank you, Zach. Missy, do you want to go next? Yeah, absolutely. No one should be penalized, financially or otherwise, for getting married to the person that they love. (27:53–28:02)
