Arizona is yet another state that will attempt to amend its constitution to protect the traditional view of marriage.
For the second time in two years, Arizona voters have been asked to approve a constitutional definition of marriage. Kathy Herrod of the Center for Arizona Policy was asked about the need, since there is already a state law declaring the same thing.
"We all know there's a difference between a state law and a constitutional amendment. A state law can easily be changed, either by the politicians or by the judges," Herrod contends. "A constitutional amendment in Arizona is necessary to prevent what we just saw happen in California, where the people approved a state law defining marriage and the judges overturned it."
Homosexual groups are getting a large amount of out-of-state money to finance their campaign to vote against an amendment, according to Herrod. "Certainly all or most of our funding is coming from Arizonans who simply want to stand for marriage and define marriage as a union between one man and one woman," she says.
Herrod expects a tough battle in the coming weeks because activists are gaining strength, but she believes traditional marriage will be victorious this time.
 "For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature:" Rom 1:26
