Twice, the voters of California have voted for Proposition 8. Proposition 8 simply (and accurately) defines marriage as the union of a man and a woman. BTW, it does NOT do away with 'civil unions' or 'domestic partnerships', but that isn't good enough for radical homosexual activists. They want to redefine marriage for the rest of the country. It does not look like the California Supreme Court is going to overturn it this time, so they want to do away with marriage for everyone. (That's not likely to happen either.) The point is, they simply refuse to accept the will of the people. They continue to force their agenda on society.
California same-sex "marriage" supporters are collecting signatures to support a ballot initiative that would remove civil marriage from California law entirely, as well as the provision codifying marriage as between a man and a woman.
The "Domestic Partnership Initiative" proposes to categorize all unions simply as "domestic partnerships," while retaining all the rights of marriage for heterosexual couples, and extending them to homosexual couples. According to the initiative's summary, "Legally speaking, 'Marriage' itself would become a social ceremony, recognized by only non-governmental institutions."
State Attorney General Jerry Brown submitted the official title and summary for the measure on Monday, about one week after opening arguments in lawsuits challenging Proposition 8, California's true marriage amendment.
The new initiative arose after it was widely acknowledged that judges appeared unconvinced that the state Supreme Court should overturn the voter-approved amendment.
