California’s Proposition 22 struck down
May 15, 2008 |
BREAKING NEWS
SACRAMENTO— In a ruling delivered today by the California Supreme Court, Proposition 22, which defined marriage as between a man and a woman, was deemed to be unconstitutional. The 4-3 decision was delivered today at 10:00 AM PST.
Writing for the majority, Chief Justice Ronald M. George said:
“…in light of the conclusions we reach concerning the constitutional questions brought to us for resolution, we determine that the language of section 300 limiting the designation of marriage to a union “between a man and a woman” is unconstitutional and must be stricken from the statute, and that the remaining statutory language must be understood as making the designation of marriage available both to opposite-sex and same-sex couples.”
