Same-Sex Marriage Ban Repeal Makes 2024 CA Ballot

CNN reports:

California voters will have the chance to remove language barring same-sex marriage from their state’s constitution in 2024’s general election.

The California Senate passed a proposed constitutional amendment on Thursday that would repeal Proposition 8 – which voters approved in 2008 to ban the state from recognizing same-sex marriages.

The state Senate voted 31-0 to repeal the proposition, with all but one of the chamber’s eight Republicans not casting a vote. The California Assembly passed the measure in June with the two thirds majority needed to place it on the ballot in 2024.

Read the full article. Prop 8 passed after a massive campaign by the Mormon and Catholic churches. Viciously anti-LGBTQ San Francisco Archbishop Salvatore Cordileone is considered by some to be “the father of Prop 8.”
