It is a little more nuanced than that. Massachusetts legalized gay marriage before the feds. LGBTQ couples in Mass. couldn't file jointly because the feds didn't recognize their marriage as legal, even though the state did. She's asking for back taxes to be paid to those specific couples that were married legally in the state of Massachusetts before it became legal nationwide.

“The federal government forced legally married same-sex couples in Massachusetts to file as individuals and pay more in taxes for almost a decade,” Warren said in a statement, according to NBC News. “We need to call out that discrimination and to make it right — Congress should pass the Refund Equality Act immediately.”

"It wasn’t until marriage equality became law that gay & lesbian couples could jointly file tax returns—so they paid more in taxes," the Democratic presidential candidate posted to Twitter on Sunday. "Our government owes them more than $50M for the years our discriminatory tax code left them out. We must right these wrongs."

They arent owed anything from the Feds. If Mass didnt let em that's on Mass.

He looked weak and out of touch. Anything he does now will just make him look more weak because it will no doubt be doing all he can to pander to a mob. That’s what they were....a mob. Truth be damned it’s white cop’s fault. Who cares if he was breaking into people’s property and threatened harm to law enforcement it’s not his fault. Anything less wont do. They’re just like the mob in Sacramento berating law enforcement and cheering an officer’s death. Lawless, entitled thugs that thing they’re above everything.

But early last Sunday that all changed, when a white police officer in Buttigieg’s South Bend police department who had been accused of excessive force in the past shot and killed a 54-year-old black man. Officials said the victim was rifling through parked cars and armed with a knife; the officer hadn’t activated his body camera video and the camera on his dash wasn’t switched on either, so there was no independent record of the fatal encounter.

What Mayor Pete Couldn’t Fix About the South Bend Cops

Engaging with the people that vote for you makes you weak and out of touch? We need more politicians like Pete that will actually engage with voters and their concerns.

The feds are at fault here, not Massachusetts. The federal government treated the married couples of Massachusetts differently than the rest of the country.

Who cares? The federal government doesn’t need to be in the marriage business anyway. Further proof you can’t pander to libtards enough.

Attitudes like yours are why we are stuck in this ****** perpetual two party system. Mocking those who actually vote for candidates that best represent their interests instead of mindlessly voting down the party line? You're no better than the never trumpers.

Biden is the Democrats only chance to win the election. But they have to stop treating him like trump and manufacturing flaws. Everyone else is too extreme imo.

I would have disagreed with you two months ago. With the way they have tried to bury him, I agree with you. I also think the other nominees will be wrecked in the general

Biden will either step on himself (again) on the campaign trail and say more stupid stuff, get caught up in Russiagate, or his son's dealings with China and Ukraine will be his downfall. I'm looking for one of the super libs to rise to the top. Warren is looking to be on the move right now, if she doesn't peak to early.

There is a reason he stays in hiding compared to the others, his handlers never know when that old drunk perv is going to go off the rails

Dems have a "secret list of Supreme Court Judges" in which they want Liberal Activists to pack the SC.
The Democrats do not want the American public to see who they will appoint to be so left-wing extreme.

Ad campaign targets Dems over ‘secret’ list of potential Supreme Court picks

If the Democrats win the Presidential election say good-bye to the America we all love and die for.

I have been hoping Clarence Thomas would retire just in case. If a socialist wins 2020 the Rs better hold on to the Senate and treat all of their picks like Trump's have been treated.

If a Democrat wins 2020, I hope Republicans throw everything they have at him/her. I hope they subpoena everyone around him/her. I hope Fox has 90% negative coverage of whoever it is. I hope a special counsel gets appointed investigating him/her

I want him/her to be treated EXACTLY as Trump was treated. I want him/her to feel what Trump felt during his Presidency.

You know, that's what we'd like to see done but Republicans will wimp out & fold like a cheap $2 dollar tent.
I want justice for all the crap Demo-rats have been doing to screw up & mess up this POTUS's chance at working for the American people in a very positive way and them not working w/anybody on the other side of the aisle to having & keeping America to stay FIRST in matters of pertaining to world affairs. Republicans have no spine to show but there are a few.....they will just go a long to get a long. As a future we'll have to put up w/crazy horrible idiot leadership because Demo-rats know nothing about showing how to lead and coming up w/ways to solving problems in leading this great Nation further into prosperity.
