Ben Carson SuperPAC Outed as Sponsor of Distinguished Hate Group
by Elizabeth Preza
A SuperPAC that raised over $5 million for Republican presidential candidate Ben Carson reportedly set up a booth at a conference for the World Congress of Families, an organization that heavily opposes LGBT rights around the world.

A staff member at the Human Rights Campaign snapped a photo of an official list of the conference partners, noting that The 2016 Committee — a SuperPAC for the Republican hopeful — was listed near the bottom.

The Southern Poverty Law Center describes the World Congress of Families as a hate group intent on pursuing “an international anti-choice, anti-LGBT agenda” and dictating “who has rights as ‘family,’ and who doesn’t. ”

A staff member at the HRC told reporters, “what we know for sure is that” the Carson SuperPAC was a sponsor. “It’s obviously very, very troubling to see. There’s no question that the speakers here are focused on exporting anti-LGBT rhetoric,” the staff member said.
