House Passes Provision to Ban Gay 'Marriage' on Military Bases-- Senate Must Act

Congressman Steve King says "These marriages violate the Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA). My amendment prohibits the use of both military funds and facilities for same-sex marriages."


The House of Representatives passed an amendment to the 2013 Defense Department (DoD) spending bill that would effectively bar military chaplains from performing gay "marriage" services and prevent gay "marriage" ceremonies form taking place on military installations.

The amendment, offered by Rep. Steve King (R-Iowa), passed on a 247-166 vote on July 19. (KINGIA_015_xml(1).pdf)

Now the Senate must act. Now. Call your two U.S. Senators.
