I don't know how they can look at what they are trying to do and come to any other conclusion in that a constitutional amendment to prohibit my family from access to civil marriage is just discrimination, pure and simple.

Lisa Polyak

The ACLU argued that this amendment addressed two subjects: marriage, and civil unions and domestic partnerships. They said people would be in favor of voting for marriage, but may not be in favor of banning civil unions. The Supreme Court rejected that argument and said that this amendment is about the singular purpose of marriage and maintaining and preserving the protections and obligations of marriage.

Two months ago, some assured us that court-stripping efforts would stop once they [Republican leaders] got what they wanted on the Defense of Marriage Act. There is no pretense that this will end. What is next? Voting rights? Laws that prohibit racial discrimination? Civil liberties? Our rights to privacy?

Nancy Pelosi

The constitutional problem created by almost a decade of activist lawsuits to destroy marriage demands a constitutional fix. AFM created the Marriage Protection Amendment and our text has been introduced with bi-partisan sponsorship in two successive sessions of Congress in order to protect the common sense view of marriage shared by most Americans of every race, color and creed.

Matt Daniels

Not one piece of testimony on behalf of this measure has been able to demonstrate how amending the Virginia Constitution to prohibit marriage equality for same-sex couples, civil unions and other marriage look-alikes would somehow strengthen or protect heterosexual marriage.

Dyana Mason

I am pleased that the compromise amendment before the Constitutional Convention was defeated. Now, we can work to put on the ballot a simpler amendment that simply defines marriage as between a man and a woman.

Mitt Romney

This event is a time for elected officials - many of whom are facing a vote on June 5 on the discriminatory Federal Marriage Amendment - to see the faces of their constituents and see in a very real way that we are about family values, too. One of our core family values is simple, basic equality for all of our family members, and we want our legislators to understand what it means. That's what this day is about.

Jody M. Huckaby

The amendment goes far beyond just defining marriage between a man and a woman. What it does is prohibit recognition for all unmarried couples in the state.

Dyana Mason

The Army has carried the American ... ideal to its logical conclusion. Not only do they prohibit discrimination on the grounds of race, creed and color, but also on ability.

The Commodore 64 is the computer that attracts demo programming. The very idea of the entire nation sitting around and waiting to see if a handful of judges overturn traditional marriage with a nonchalant wave of the hand is absurd. We need to anchor marriage in a constitutional amendment, and we need to do it soon.

Tim Wildmon

We're also pleased that the governor vetoed two other pro-homosexual bills. One of them effectively would have silenced pro-family candidates on issues of sexual morality, and the other would have hampered efforts to collect petition signatures to put a state constitutional amendment protecting marriage on the ballot.

Robert Knight

I oppose a constitutional amendment against gay marriage.

Ed Case

This amendment targets a specific group of Americans and permanently excludes them from certain rights and benefits, ... The most often discussed text for a marriage amendment would not only ban same-sex marriages, it would threaten civil union and domestic partnerships laws at the state and local levels.

Russ Feingold (1953-)

Americans will see that when lesbians and gay men are given access to most of the rights and obligations of civil marriage, the sky will not fall and the institution of marriage will be even stronger.

Evan Wolfson

A state Constitutional Amendment is necessary because, as we have seen elsewhere, activist judges have overturned statutory protections of marriage.
