What authority does he have over the Boy Scouts?
What's Romney's position on queer boy scout leaders? Anybody know?A campaign assistant for Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney confirmed that the former Massachusetts governor's opposition to the Boy Scouts' ban on homosexual leaders, which he publicly expressed in 1994, still stands. According to the Deseret News, Romney spokeswoman Andrea Saul told the Associated Press that Romney is still holding to the political stand he adopted nearly 20 years ago when he said during an unsuccessful run for Ted Kennedy's U.S. Senate that while he supported “the right of the Boy Scouts of America to decide what it wants to do on that issue,” he also felt that “all people should be able to participate in the Boy Scouts regardless of their sexual orientation.” --Link
Yes, Romney stands firmly behind the queer boy scout leaders.
Back when he was working on the Salt Lake Olympics, he was also a board member of the national Boy Scouts of America. He expressed his belief that everyone including gay children and adults, should be allowed to participate in the Boy Scouts. Although he said the BSA had a right to decide for itself.
He then banned the Boy Scouts from working on the Olympics which was the first time they had ever been restricted from serving at the Olympic games in the US.
He recently reiterated his previous stand. He is for both queer adults as leaders and queer boys as participants.
