PSA: Video — "Marriage Equality in California"
On February 28th, the Pew Forum on Religion & Public Life, American Constitution Society for Law and Policy, Federalist Society, and USC Annenberg Knight Chair in Media and Religion presented “Marriage Equality in California – Legal and Political Prospects.”California is one of the most active states in the debate over marriage for same sex- couples. The California Supreme Court is considering whether defining marriage as the union between a man and a woman, and denying marriage rights to same-sex couples, violates the state constitution’s guarantees of equal protection under the law, the fundamental right to marry, or the right to privacy or freedom of expression.
The panel discussion lasts 1 hour, 33 minutes and includes lawyers from both sides of the consolidated California marriage cases, a/k/a Woo v. Lockyer — including Ken Starr, who served as a hired gun on behalf of the Mormon and Roman Catholic Churches as well as other radical theocrats in arguing against full marriage equality.
