ACLU urges opposition to Florida Marriage Amendment
Pat Gillespie reports on News-Press.com:
Officials from the American Civil Liberties Union, at a meeting Saturday at Lakes Regional Library in south Fort Myers, urged Southwest Florida residents to spread the word of opposition to a constitutional amendment that will appear on November’s ballot.
The amendment would define marriage as a union between a man and a woman. ACLU officials are worried the ballot’s language will make it difficult for unmarried couples who share benefits, many of them seniors, to continue that.
