Thank you, Scott! And Gennee! And Rick!
Thanks for bumping, and for following on what's going on here.
IMO this is huge. We defeated the marriage amendment in 06, and now they've forced it back.
They literally had to break the senate rules to force this thing through on the last day of session. An ethics complaint was filed, and I'm not sure what the status is on that, but I believe it is still being looked into.
Meanwhile, we're stuck fighting the amendment at the ballot. I signed up to volunteer, but haven't heard from the campaign.
Since voters have already dealt with a marriage amendment, and there are so many serious issues that need to be dealt with, I hope voters will see this for the distraction it is. Not to mention a horrible waste of taxpayer money putting it on the ballot for a second time.
