Arizona: New Marriage Amendment Bill Passes Committee!
Cathi Herrod reports on the Center for Arizona Policy website:
The marriage amendment referendum got back on track in the House Judiciary Committee today by a vote of 6-4. The referendum will give you the opportunity to vote on placing the following language into the Arizona Constitution: “Only a union of one man and one woman shall be valid or recognized as a marriage in this state.”
The original bill was thrown off course last week when opponents added a hostile amendment on the House floor.

Good job Arizona!!
Too many of those who parade under the banner of liberalism do so falsely; otherwise and in order to maintain and promote democracy, they would demand, rather than seek to forbid, the right of the people to vote. Bob Crutcher
Great for you folks!! It’s a shame you have to have a law about this matter when any normal, sane, person with any kind of brain can plainly see that the way God made male and female (to procreate)that two male or two females cannot fulfil that purpose. God bless you all.

This was a parliamentary trick - subsituting this amendment to 100% replace a proposal to honor Vietnam Vets. Nice way to game the system, instead of going on the merits of your issue
Thank you Arizona - Keep up the good work. It’s about time that people stand up for what is right in the USA.
