Why not wait for the state legislature to repeal the Marriage Amendment resulting from Prop 8?
Waiting for the Marriage Amendment to be overturned by the legislative or executive branch of state government is a waste of time because our state legislators and governor are elected officials whose jobs depend on the popular vote. In fact, two marriage rights bills were already vetoed by Governor Schwarzenegger. The most efficient and effective way to overturn the Marriage Amendment is through the judicial branch of state government. That’s why the Marriage Equality Defense Fund is leading this battle in court. You can help us win. Donate today!
