Brad Miller

Template:TOCnestleft Brad Miller is a Democratic member of the United States House of Representatives, representing the 13th district of North Carolina.

Early Life

Ralph Bradley (Brad) Miller was born on May 19, 1953 in Fayetteville, North Carolina to Margaret Hale Miller and Nathan David Miller.[1]

North Carolina Legislature

He was a member of the North Carolina House of Representatives from 1992 until 1994 and a member of the North Carolina Senate from 1996 to 2002.[2]

Supported by Council for a Livable World

The Council for a Livable World, founded in 1962 by long-time socialist activist and alleged Soviet agent, Leo Szilard, is a non-profit advocacy organization that seeks to "reduce the danger of nuclear weapons and increase national security", primarily through supporting progressive, congressional candidates who support their policies. The Council supported Brad Miller in his successful House of Representatives run as candidate for North Carolina.[3]

Repeal of Defense of Marriage Act

In September 2011, Miller announced that he will co-sponsor a bill that would repeal the Defense of Marriage Act, the 1996 law that forbids federal agencies from recognizing the legal marriages of gay and lesbian couples. Describing the legislation, Miller said "North Carolina would still not be required to perform civil marriage, but it would be required to recognize marriages performed in other states.” The announcement comes on the heels of the North Carolina Legislature announcing that it would included a proposed constitutional amendment on the next ballot banning gay marriage.[4]

Congressional Progressive Caucus 2012

By April 2012 three more congressmembers had joined the Congressional Progressive Caucus.[5]
