First Entry: An Education on the Marriage Amendment

We’ll be facing a similar fight in just 11 short months here in Minnesota and we have a lot of educating to do. This post is the first in a series – all aimed at helping shed light on the proposed amendment and what it will mean to Minnesotans. Lesson one: State statute already bans same-sex marriage:
517.03 PROHIBITED MARRIAGES.
Subdivision 1. General. (a) The following marriages are prohibited:
…a marriage between persons of the same sex.”
In a time when we should be focusing on jobs, our economy and everything going on in the world, we have to ask ourselves, what is the real goal behind this proposed marriage amendment?
Stay tuned for more.
