Supporters of California’s Proposition 8, which would ban same-sex marriage in the state, took their fight to the next level Tuesday by filing a petition with the U.S. Supreme Court to overturn lower court rulings.
Prop. 8 was passed by California voters in 2008 as a ballot measure, outlawing same-sex marriage in the state. But on Feb. 7, a federal appeals court struck down the law in California and ruled it unconstitutional.
Supporters of the 2008 ballot measure are now asking for the Supreme Court to review the case in hopes of having Proposition 8 reinstated. The petitioners include the website ProtectMarriage.com and four other individuals – Gail Knight, Martin Gutierrez, Mark Jansson and former California assemblymember Dennis Hollingsworth.
