Voters silenced: Sup. Court lets stand D.C. ?gay marriage? ruling

By Alliance Alert

ADVERTISEMENTS

Michael Foust reports at Baptist Press: 'In America, we respect the right to vote. That right is explicitly protected by the D.C. Charter, but the government has succeeded for now in suppressing the voice of D.C. citizens," said [Austin R. Nimocks], senior legal counsel for the Alliance Defense Fund. 'We had hoped the U.S. Supreme Court would restore this guaranteed right in the district. ... We will remain diligent in looking for other legal opportunities to protect and defend the right of all D.C. residents to have their voices heard as the D.C. Charter clearly intended.'"
