WASHINGTON - Opponents of a proposed constitutional amendment outlawing same-sex marriage are threatening to expose gay government officials who support such a ban.
"We are looking at members of Congress and we are looking at administration officials," said gay activist John Aravosis. "They think they can attack their community by day and enjoy themselves by night."
Aravosis and fellow gay activist Mike Rogers said they have a handful of names of Bush administration officials, gay congressmen and senior congressional aides who have kept their sexual orientation private but support the amendment. Senate debate on the proposal is set for next month.
Opposition to the threatened outings has been lodged by such groups as the Log Cabin Republicans and Human Rights Watch, which fear it could become a witch hunt.
Aravosis is behind the Web site dearmary.com, which has called on Vice President Cheney's lesbian daughter, Mary, to urge her dad to drop his support for the amendment.
