Iowa House Advances Marriage Protection Amendment

A proposed constitutional amendment protecting Traditional Marriage in Iowa was approved when three Democrats joined 59 Republicans in the Iowa House yesterday to pass the resolution. The resolution would put the question of gay marriage on the 2013 ballot, but still must pass the State Senate.

Liberals really hate when there policies are put in the Court of public opinion because they fail time and time again. Same-sex marriage has been defeated in all 31 states in which it had been directly put to a popular vote and Iowa is hoping to join that pack. Not only are Iowans pushing to protect Traditional Marriage, they are fighting back against the activist judges that created this mess. As I am sure you are aware, Iowa was force to adopt same-sex marriage after all 7 Supreme Court Justices voted for it. In the last election, Iowans rejected all 3 Supreme Court Justices that were up for retention. As for the other 4 Justices, the Iowa House is trying to drum up support to begin impeachment proceedings.

41 states have banned same-sex marriage either by constitutional amendments or statutes thus far. It will be interesting to see how Iowa plays out this issue.

  1. Same sex "marriage" is an oxymoron. Lets see all 50 states create marriage protection amendments.
