As widely publicized, there will soon be attempts to violate the Texas Marriage
Amendment in our Constitution, despite its passage by more than 76% of Texan voters.
Several bills were introduced in the 84th legislative session to defend the Texas Marriage
Amendment. Despite the support by a super-majority of legislators for marriage as the
union of only one man and one woman, none of these bills to defend our Constitution
reached the House or Senate floor.
We are not willing to give up on our obligation to defend the Texas Constitution. We trust
that you support SR 1028, which recently passed by a bipartisan vote of 21-10:
WHEREAS, The Members of the Senate of the State of Texas do hereby affirm
our sworn commitment to faithfully execute the duties of the office to which we have been
duly elected and to uphold the Texas Constitution ; and
RESOLVED, That the Senate of the State of Texas, 84th Legislature, Regular
Session, hereby affirm the preservation of the present definition of marriage as being the
legal union of one man and one woman as husband and wife and pledge to uphold and
defend this principle that is so dearly held by Texans far and wide.
We request that you exercise your constitutional power to call a special session for
consideration of legislation consistent with SR 1028, to defend the Texas Marriage
Amendment.
Sincerely yours,
