Imagining 2011: What Democratic Inaction Could Mean for the LGBT Community
Welcome to America. It is Jan. 4, 2011. John Boehner is now Speaker of the House of Representatives. Mitch McConnell is now Senate Majority Leader. The first piece of legislation introduced in each house in the new Congress is the following proposal for a constitutional amendment:
Section 1. No governmental or private entity in the United States shall, in any form, recognize as a marriage any union other than one consisting of one man and one woman.
Section. 2. No governmental or private entity in the United States shall, in any form, afford any legal recognition to any union of any two or more individuals which in any way equals or approximates marriage.
