ADF:  Bill to repeal DOMA demonstrates
ongoing disregard for the American people

Washington continues to pursue radical agenda
despite objections of Americans and their constitutional protections

WASHINGTON — A bill introduced in Congress Tuesday that would repeal the federal Defense of Marriage Act demonstrates the increasing amount of contempt America’s political leaders appear to have for the values of the people they serve, say attorneys with the Alliance Defense Fund, who argue that the DOMA is completely constitutional and in tune with the beliefs of Americans. ADF attorneys point out that repeal of the primary federal law that protects marriage opens the door for litigation that would seek to force states to recognize “marriages” between members of the same sex.
