Chick-fil-A has agreed to stop funding groups with anti-same-sex marriage stances, according to a statement released Wednesday by LGBT advocacy group The Civil Rights Agenda.

Chicago Alderman Joe Moreno, who had blocked the fast-food chain from opening stores in Chicago because of its anti-gay views, likewise announced he would now let Chick-fil-A open up new outlets after he received a letter this morning from the company stating that they would cease donating to the groups. 

"Going forward, our intent is to leave the policy debate over same-sex marriage to the government and political arena." Chick-fil-A wrote in an emailed statement to NBC News. Civil Rights Agenda (CRA) and Moreno's office did not respond to emailed requests. 

The chicken-sandwich chain ignited a furor both online and offline this summer after its COO Dan Cathy said that it was company policy to support "the family -- the biblical definition of the family unit." He stated that in his view, same-sex marriages invite "God's judgment" and its proponents "have the audacity to define what marriage is about."

In response, gay rights protesters launched nationwide boycotts and staged same-sex "kiss-ins" at Chick-fil-A stores. Former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee launched a "Chick-fil-A Appreciation Day," where supporters of the company's stance on same-sex marriage descended on their local stores to purchase chicken sandwiches en masse.

According to the release by the CRA, the letter stated that chain's charitable wing "is now taking a much closer look at the organizations it considers helping, and in that process will remain true to its stated philosophy of not supporting organizations with political agendas."

I read yesterday that Chick-Fil-A uses some form of silicone in their chicken.

Good thing I've been utilizing Bojangles for all of my fast food fried chicken needs.

They don't do nearly as well as you'd think down here. One in my town actually went out of business last year. But there are now 4 Chili's within 6 miles of my house.
