style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; LINE-HEIGHT: 120%; FONT-FAMILY: 'sans-serif'"> – Today,
U.S. Senator Jim DeMint (R-South Carolina), chairman of the Senate Steering
Committee, made the following statement:</SPAN></P>
<P class=MsoNormal style="LINE-HEIGHT: 120%"><SPAN
style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; LINE-HEIGHT: 120%; FONT-FAMILY: 'sans-serif'"><BR>“Today’s
wrongful court decision is another attempt to impose a secular immorality on the
American people who keep voting to preserve traditional marriage,” said Senator
DeMint. “Traditional marriage has been the foundation of civil society for
centuries and we cannot simply toss it aside to fit the political whims of
liberal activists with gavels. Marriage is a religious institution that was
codified into law to protect it. Now, the courts are trying to deprive the
majority of Americans who value marriage the democratic ability to protect it
any longer. If our marriage laws are valueless, they will become meaningless.
History and research have shown that strong nations depend on strong families,
and that the best chance for a child’s success in life depends on having a
family with a mother and father. I hope the Supreme Court will defend the
democratic judgment of the people of California.”<BR><BR></SPAN></P>
