North Carolina Marriage Amendment Filed
The North Carolina Family Policy Council reports:
One of the first bills filed during the 2008 Session of the North Carolina General Assembly calls for an amendment to the North Carolina Constitution to define marriage as “the union of one man and one woman at one time.” The bill, Senate Bill 1608—Defense of Marriage, was filed Wednesday, May 14 by primary sponsors Senators Jim Forrester (R-Gaston) and Fred Smith (R-Johnston). This is the fifth year in a row that such legislation has been introduced in the North Carolina Legislature, and bill proponents are hopeful that this will be the year the legislative leadership allows a vote on the measure. . .

I pray NC will stand for the RIGHT thing and declare marriage to be
only between one man and one woman. It would be wonderful also if we
in the “Bible Belt” would be willing to work to stay married.
