Iowa’s social conservatives – who overwhelming supported Mike Huckabee during their presidential primaries – will take to the streets to protest gay marriage today.
The issue gained attention last summer when a Polk County judge ruled Iowa’s marriage law is unconstitutional. The decision has been appealed to the Iowa Supreme Court. One of the rally’s organizers is Chuck Hurley of the Iowa Family Policy Center.
He wants the Legislature to debate soon. He says waiting is unfair to Iowans because it delays the start of a lengthy process to amend the Iowa Constitution. The rally is set for 11:30 a.m. on the west steps on the Capitol.
Too bad we can’t make it.
