CA: Effort intensifies for same-sex marriage ban
Howard Bashman (How Appealing) links to a San Francisco Chronicle story by Matthew Yi on Thursday’s delivery of 1.1 million Protect Marriage signatures throughout California. The article cites Alliance Defense Fund Senior Counsel Joe Infranco:
“The California marriage amendment will allow the people of California, not politicians or courts, to decide the meaning of marriage and place that meaning inside the Constitution,” Joseph Infranco, an attorney for Alliance Defense Fund, an Arizona group helping the initiative campaign, said as he delivered about 44,000 petitions to Sacramento County’s registrar of voters office.
“While the Supreme Court can overturn statutes, they can’t overturn constitutional amendments,” Infranco said.
