Eight Republicans in the Iowa state House have proposed an amendment to their state’s constitution to ban same-sex marriage, arguing that the state should only recognize marriages between one man and one woman.

 

“In accordance with the laws of nature and nature’s God, the state of Iowa recognizes the definition of marriage to be the solemnized union between one human biological male and one human biological female,” reads the joint resolution introduced Tuesday.

 

Same-sex couples in Iowa are not in immediate jeopardy of losing their right to marry, however, as both passing and enacting the resolution are multistep processes that will take several years to complete.

Bunch of darn religious fascists who don't give a damn about US Constitution. "“In accordance with the laws of nature and nature’s God,..." Separation of church and state, jerks. American Taliban.

If they were conservatives, they would be quiet about the subject. For all my life they trumpeted "that which governs least governs best". Don't like gay marriage? marry outside your sex. no problem

The party of small Government.

 

 

dinosaurs.

 

Why shouldn't gay people suffer like the rest of us?

Might as well go full Shariah.

I guess they didn't learn too much about nature then. More than 90% of all mammals do *not* practice opposite sex monogamy. So if they claim to make rules according with the laws of nature then please make it a law that the alpha male goes around and mates with all the females of the hole village while the other males have to compete in a deadly brawl for the privilege.

Ah the Republican Party of taking your freedoms and setting human rights back no matter how you feel about it it’s up to the individual to decide not the government vote people it matters!
