PROP 3

While same-sex marriage has been legal in the United States for some time, many states, including California, have not recognized that fact in their state constitutions.

Prop 3 amends the state constitution to remove the words, "Only marriage between a man and a woman is valid or recognized in California", and replace them with "the right to marry is a fundamental right". That's it.

The Evangelical Christian group opposed to the change warns that the wording of the bill would "remove protections against child marriages, incest, and polygamy".

They are wrong, of course, but I thought I'd include their position to answer the obvious question you might have, "why would anyone be against this?"
