Our Statement On Prop 8 Ruling

The rule the majority crafts today not only allows same-sex couples to be stripped of the right to marry that this court recognized in the Marriage Cases, it places at risk the state constitutional rights of all disfavored minorities. It weakens the status of our state Constitution as a bulwark of fundamental rights for minorities protected from the will of the majority. I therefore dissent.

 

California Supreme Court Justice Carlos Moreno

 in his dissent to the majority opinion in upholding Prop 8.

 

The board of directors and members of the Alice B. Toklas LGBT Democratic Club agree with Justice Moreno, the sole dissenter to the California Supreme Court’s decision upholding Prop 8, that the court’s decision “weakens the status of our state Constitution as a bulwark of fundamental rights for minorities protected from the will of the majority.”

 

We are deeply disappointed, but not defeated.  We will not allow Prop 8 to stand.  Whether in 2010 or 2012, we who believe in the equality of all Californians will overturn Prop 8.  The Alice B. Toklas LGBT Democratic Club will, again, be in the field working to advance the cause of equality by joining with others to help every Californian understand that denying marriage equality to LGBT Californians is unjust and unfair.  That work begins anew today as we, in the words of President Obama, continue the fight for a more perfect union.
