Sens. Mike Lee and Ted Cruz introduce legislation that would block the Obama administration’s efforts to impose its gay marriage agenda on all 50 states.
Reports The Hill:
Cruz and Lee said Obama should respect states’ rights to define marriage, rather than it being “dictated from Washington.”
“I support traditional marriage,” Cruz said. “This bill will safeguard the ability of states to preserve traditional marriage for its residents.”
The Supreme Court recently struck down provisions of the Defense of Marriage Act, saying it was discrimination for the federal government to not recognize gay marriages that are legal within some states. Although the court decision allows states to still determine whether to recognize same-sex marriage, Cruz and Lee said the administration is using the ruling to “force” a same-sex marriage agenda.
