Today is the nationwide protest against the 'Defense of Marriage Act'
DOMA is pure discrimination written into our law by stating that:
1. No state (or other political subdivision within the United States) need treat a relationship between persons of the same sex as a marriage, even if the relationship is considered a marriage in another state.
2. The Federal Government may not treat same-sex relationships as marriages for any purpose, even if concluded or recognized by one of the states.
