Colorado Springs, Colo. –– Focus on the Family Action Senior Vice President Tom Minnery issued the following statement today in response to the Iowa Supreme Court's ruling allowing same-sex "marriage":
"The Iowa Supreme Court opened the door to all kinds of ‘marriage' by using logic so broad and defective that the decision could well include polygamy. This ruling tramples on the will of Iowa citizens who enacted a law defining marriage as the union of one man and one woman in 1998 to help ensure every Iowan child had a chance to be raised in a household by a married mom and a dad.
"The people of Iowa can have the last say on what social policy guides their lives by passing a marriage amendment like 30 other states have done."
