California Marriage Decision Shows Constitutional Amendments Are Only Protection from Activist Courts

"The California Supreme Court’s decision Thursday to grant same-sex couples a fundamental right to marriage disregards voters’ 61 percent decision in favor of marriage as one man and one woman, a domestic partnership law already granting same-sex couples the benefits and privileges of marriage, and centuries of tradition and precedent–corroborated more recently by social science–that have set the union of one man and one woman apart from all other household forms"

NOTE: Please email Senate President Tim Bee and respectfully urge him to bring the marriage amendment measure to the vote of the Senate. The proposal is dead in the water without his action. Senator Bee can be reached at TBee@azleg.gov
