The U.S. Supreme Court has refused to hear a case in which a group fighting gay marriage in Maine sought to keep its donor list secret.
The National Organization for Marriage lost a lawsuit in U.S. District Court in Portland over its refusal to disclose its donors as required under Maine law.
The out-of-state group, which spent $1.9 million on a successful effort to repeal Maine's same-sex marriage law in 2009, appealed the decision to the First Circuit Court of Appeals and lost again.
