The efforts to place a constitutional amendment on California’s November ballot continue with high hopes! The California Marriage Protection Act will protect the historic, natural definition of marriage. Having submitted more than 1.1 million signatures throughout California’s 58 counties, the qualification process is well underway.
California’s Secretary of State has directed all counties to commence with the validation process of a random sample. Although it may take a few weeks before all counties complete this process, the early reports look very positive. Sincere thanks are due to committed teams of volunteers who “scrubbed” petitions for inadmissible signatures.
The months leading up to November will be filled with media messages about marriage. In addition, the California Supreme Court will issue its decision on the constitutionality of Proposition 22 within the next three weeks. Campaign strategies are in place and will be activated according to their timeline! Please return often to the ProtectMarriage.com Web site for updates on the qualification process, the specific needs for volunteers, and links to articles regarding the California Marriage Protection Act.
A constitutional amendment is the only way to stop the courts from overturning the will of the voters on this issue. If the Governor truly supports the will of the voters, he would back the amendment. Perhaps he'll come to realize that we are just protecting the current definition of marriage.
