Patricia Arquette Gets Political In Oscar Acceptance

Sunday at the the 87th Academy Awards, while accepting her Oscar for best supporting actress for her role in “Boyhood,” Patricia Arquette got political.

After thanking her colleagues and family, Arquette said, “To my heroes, volunteers and experts who have helped me bring ecological sanitation to the developing world with Givelove.org. To every woman who gave birth to every taxpayer and citizen of this nation, we have fought for everybody’s equal rights. It is our time to have wage equality once and for all, and equal rights for women in the United States of America.”
