Brief statement from Bob Marshall on Supreme Court stay in marriage case

bob marshallStatement from Republican State Del. Bob Marshall on the Supreme Court stay in the Virginia marriage equality case.

The Supreme Court’s issuance of a stay today in the Virginia Marriage case highlights the arrogance of the two Fourth Circuit judges​ in denying the stay.

The refusal of the Supreme Court to be pressured by the Fourth Circuit judges into a decision that would make it difficult for them to uphold the Virginia Marriage Amendment approved by 1.3 million Virginians is to be commended.

I once again urge intelligent Virginians to read the well-researched dissent of Judge Neimeyer.​
