Hillary Clinton now supports same-sex marriage and its legality across the United States. She was previously against same-sex marriage, but officially changed her position in an announcement on Mar 19, 2013.

Back in 2007, she supported legally equal civil unions, though she was not in favor of repealing the Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA) provisions regarding same-sex marriage.

In 2006, she supported states' rights to choose whether same-sex marriage should be legalized.

In 2004, she opposed amending the constitution to ban same-sex marriages.

In 2000, she reiterated her support for DOMA.

As early as 1999 she expressed support for same-sex civil unions.

In 1996 she supported her husband with the signing of DOMA.

== == It is important to realize that some politicians running for President or any other office will make all sorts of promises, but many are not kept. Hillary Clinton and Obama need votes! They will do anything to get those votes to win and they zero in on different areas of society such as Gay Rights to gain those votes. It appears that Hillary Clinton is walking the fence on Gay issues. She is very crafty at dodging the issues as most politicians are. While she admits in her speeches she is proud of how hard lesbian organizations have fought Ms. Clinton is still sitting on the fence over this topic. She has been quoted as agreeing to gay unions of a couple, but not gay marriages in the Christian sense.

How did barack obama's position on same-sex marriage change from 2008 presidentical campaign?

In 2008, Barack Obama was in favor of equal rights for gay people, but when it came to marriage, he still only supported civil unions. As he has noted in interviews, his position gradually changed: over the next several years, encouraged by some of his supporters as well as by his daughters and wife, he "evolved" (as he put it) to a position of agreement that gay people deserved full equality, including the right to marry.
