The president of the American Civil Liberties Union says polygamy is among the “fundamental rights” that her organization will continue to defend.
During a question-and-answer session after a speech at Yale University, ACLU president Nadine Strossen stated that her organization has “defended the right of individuals to engage in polygamy,” reported AgapePress, noting that the comments cited by the Yale Daily News received little attention.
The student paper said Strossen was responding to a “student’s question about gay marriage, bigamy, and polygamy.”
The ACLU chief said her organization defends “the freedom of choice for mature, consenting individuals,” making it “the guardian of liberty … defend[ing] the fundamental rights of all people.”

The ACLU is in federal court trying to strike down federal funding for an abstinence-based sex education program, calling it an unconstitutional endorsement of religion.
The program, by a group called the Silver Ring Thing, allows teens to sign a voluntary pledge to abstain from sexual activity until marriage and wear a ring as a reminder of the vow.
