The collective wisdom of human history, not to mention biology, and logic, shows us that marriage is designed to be between one man and one woman.

Prop. 8 is much more than about marriage!

The way you vote on Nov. 4, 2008, will change your world!

Prop. 8 is a ballot measure that will place into the California Constitution language that says "Only marriage between a man and a woman is valid and recognized in California."

You need to know how Prop. 8 will impact your...

  • Rights - Prop. 8 protects the right "rights."
  • Kids - Prop. 8 protects children.
  • Churches - Prop. 8 prevents reverse discrimination against churches and other centers of worship.
  • Education - Prop. 8 prevents unbalanced pro-gay indoctrination in public schools.
  • Public Health - Prop. 8 protects and strengthens society by promoting traditional marriage.
  • Faith - Prop. 8 protects freedom of religion and freedom of speech.
  • Society - Prop. 8 prevents the slow crumbling of civilization if marriage is redefined.

The background:

  • On January 1, 1999, California enacted a domestic partnership registry. By 2007 domestic partnerships were allowed virtually all the same rights and responsibilities as marriages. [2]
  • In March 7, 2000, 61% of California voters passed Proposition 22, to keep marriage between a man and a woman. [1]
  • This spring, nearly 1.2 million signatures were collected all over California, qualifying Prop. 8 for the ballet. The measure said the proposition "amends the California Constitution to provide that only marriage between a man and a woman is valid or recognized in California." [3]
  • On May 15, 2008, four judges overturned the will of voters and said same-sex marriage was a "right." [4]
  • In July 2008, state Attorney General Jerry Brown changed Prop. 8's title and summary of the measure. The biased new language now says that Prop. 8 would "eliminate the right of same-sex couples to marry." [5]

What happens next is up to you. Vote on Nov. 4! Vote Yes on 8!
