According to the L.A. Times, ProtectMarriage is contending that if the 9th Circuit only permits California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger and/or California Attorney General Jerry Brown to appeal the lower court’s ruling to the 9th Circuit, then the most previous ruling that Proposition 8 was unconstitutional would only benefit the four plaintiffs of the case and would continue to ban other same-sex couples from marrying in the state since the case was only filed on behalf of the two couples and not the entire LGBT community of California. ]]> http://floridaagenda.com/2010/09/23/prop-8-overturn-may-only-help-2-couples/feed/ 0
