Constitutional Amendment to Protect Marriage Equality Needed!

I am writing to you as a concerned citizen deeply alarmed by recent legal challenges to Obergefell v. Hodges and the increasing rhetoric aimed at rolling back hard-won rights for same-sex couples. Marriage equality is not merely a policy preference; it is a fundamental human right rooted in the principles of liberty, equality, and justice that our Constitution promises to every American. While the Respect for Marriage Act currently provides federal recognition of same-sex marriages, it remains vulnerable to shifting political climates and judicial reinterpretation. A single Supreme Court decision should not have the power to strip millions of Americans of their dignity, security, and legal recognition of their families. Only a constitutional amendment can safeguard marriage equality unilaterally and permanently, ensuring that no future court or legislature can erode these rights. I urge you to introduce and support legislation that would: 1. Enshrine marriage equality for all couples, regardless of sex, gender, or sexual orientation, into the U.S. Constitution. 2. Explicitly prohibit any federal, state, or local law from denying recognition or benefits to lawful marriages based on these factors. 3. Guarantee that such rights are equally protected under the law for future generations. This is not a partisan issue—it is a moral and constitutional one. Over 70% of Americans support marriage equality, and enshrining it in our nation’s founding document would affirm that love, commitment, and family are rights belonging to everyone. I ask you to act decisively to protect these freedoms before they are placed at risk. Please be a leader in securing the promise of equality for all Americans.
