Family Institute of Connecticut Fighting Court Ruling

The Connecticut Supreme Court has ruled same-sex couples have the right to marry.  Opponents of gay marriage are looking towards a ballot question in to block the unions.

This is a last ditch effort by “Christian” groups to force delegates to rewrite the state’s constitution. It’s a long, drawn out process that would cost millions, and it’s on the ballot this November.

“This is our one opportunity for the people to have a voice, for the people to be heard, for them to decide whether marriage will be protected as between a man and a woman,” said Peter Wolfgang, executive director of the Family Institute of Connecticut.

It was reported on GayAgenda.com, last Friday, the state Supreme Court ruled that Connecticut would be the third state, after California and Massachusetts, to allow same-sex marriage. The court said Connecticut’s 2005 civil union law doesn’t give same-sex couples the same status as married heterosexual couples.
