Mary Bono Mack: Another Republican with an unwed, knocked-up daughter [View All]

Heard on the Hill: Bono Mack’s Daughter Is Expecting

Chianna Bono, daughter of the late Rep. Sonny Bono (R-Calif) and Rep. Mary Bono Mack (R-Calif.), is pregnant with her first child, the website Contact Music reported Wednesday.

Bono, 20, is expecting a baby with boyfriend Mark Hrabe, 51. The couple is planning to wed, though HOH hasn’t learned when.

Bono Mack told Star Magazine that the news was “unexpected.” We assume that she was referring to the pregnancy, but perhaps the wedding as well?

“Chianna is happy and in love,” Bono Mack tells HOH. “She is positively glowing, and that is what is important.”

Bono Mack followed the Republican Party line 89% of the time according to Congressional Quarterly. In 2004, she earned an 84% approval rating from the Christian Coalition of America,<2> but this fell to 33% in 2008.<3> In 1999, she voted in favor of the Largent Amendment,<4> to ban adoption by same-sex couples in Washington, D.C.<5> Bono has, however, voted against the Federal Marriage Amendment twice.

So, unwed 20 year-old daughters of Congress Women can have a baby... but gay couples cannot adopt.

Stay classy, Bono Mack.
