Jeremiah G. Dys: Let people vote on how to define a ‘marriage’

Jeremiah G. Dys of the Family Policy Council of West Virginia writes at Journal-News.net: “. . . the 2010 legislative session is set to begin, and our leaders have failed to advance a legitimate reason not to let the people vote on the definition of marriage . . . lawmakers who appear to be holding the democratic process hostage would do well to remember Article II, Section 2-2 of West Virginia’s Constitution, ‘The powers of government reside in all the citizens of the state, and can be rightfully exercised only in accordance with their will and appointment.’ In short, a lawmaker’s answer to this critical question must be, ‘Let the people vote.’”
