What is the standard for deciding who should be allowed to marry?
Let's be clear -- the state marriage amendment that you will vote on next month does not in any way change Virginia's current law. Virginia already bans same-sex marriage and civil unions. But our law is at the mercy of state courts until it is protected by a state constitutional amendment.
Voting yes on this amendment will not affect anyone's rights. It will simply protect current Virginia law while sending a clear message that Virginia believes traditional marriage is best for children and society.
