Liberty Counsel Files Motion to Intervene to Defend California's Marriage Amendment

Nov 10, 2008

Today Liberty Counsel is filing a motion to intervene to defend against three lawsuits filed at the California Supreme Court that would undermine marriage as the union of one man and one woman.

The lawsuits were filed last week by same-sex marriage advocates including the ACLU, the National Center for Lesbian Rights and Lambda Legal, asking the Court to overturn the California Marriage Protection Act (Proposition 8) recently passed by 52% of California voters. Those groups are upset because the Act, which states: "Only marriage between a man and a woman is valid or recognized in California," will overturn the Court's May 15 ruling in favor of same-sex marriage.
