Kathleen Kane is the Pennsylvania attorney general who announced Thursday that she would not defend the state's same-sex marriage ban in federal court.

"It's the role of the attorney general to be an independently elected voice," Kane said the day after winning the attorney's general race. "People see politics as a close-knit, good ol' boy network, and I want to change that starting Day One."
