: ZiefBriefDOJ will stop defending the Defense of Marriage Act
Attorney General Holder issued a statement today announcing that the President has instructed the Department of Justice not to defend the federal Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA) as applied to legally married same-sex couples. Further, he has informed Congress of this decison so that they might take action of their own.
The act defines marriage as a union between one man and one woman. The law, while deemed unconstitutional by Holder and the president, will still be considered in effect until Congress repeals it.
What are your thoughts on this issue?
