Issue

US Senate Poised to Attack the Defense of Marriage Act

Details

On Thursday the US Senate Judiciary Committee will be voting on Senator Dianne Feinstein’s S598 – Respect for Marriage Act.  This bill sounds like a good idea — maybe even promoting the idea of strengthening marriages.  But that’s NOT its intention.  Here’s its purpose:  “To repeal the Defense of Marriage Act and ensure respect for State regulation of marriage.”

Action Steps

1.)  This committee heavily leans left —just take a look at the members.   Pray for Thursday’s vote that it would fail!  A miracle CAN happen!

2.)   No one from Pennsylvania is on the Senate Judiciary Committee; however, contact the Republican members and ask them to stand strong against S598 also contact the chairman, Senator Patrick Leahy and ask him to stop this attack on marriage.
