MANASSAS, Va. -- Chick-fil-A President and CEO Dan T. Cathy will come to Prince William County to speak about business. The announcement comes as some are crying foul over his recent comments about marriage, stating a union should only be between a man and woman.
Cathy said his Chick-fil-A company, a privately owned fast-food restaurant chain with its highest-grossing restaurant in Woodbridge, is "guilty as charged" when it comes to upholding the biblical definition of a family to include a man and woman.
In November, the Prince William Chamber of Commerce will invite Cathy to speak at the Hylton Performing Arts Center in Manassas on Tuesday Nov. 27. Tickets to the event are being sold for up to $55 each, and Cathy is slated to talk about the success of his family-owned business.
