CITY ATTORNEY ROCKY DELGADILLO JOINS SAN FRANCISCO, SANTA CLARA IN FILING ACTION TO INVALIDATE PROPOSITION 8 LOS ANGELES – Los Angeles City Attorney Rocky Delgadillo today announced his office has joined San Francisco City Attorney Dennis Herrera and Santa Clara County Counsel Anne C. Ravel in filing a petition for writ of mandate with the California Supreme Court in order to invalidate Proposition 8, an initiative constitutional amendment that would deny same sex couples their fundamental right to marry in the State of California. “Equal protection under the law is a bedrock principle of our constitutional democracy,” said City Attorney Delgadillo. “Proposition 8 flies in the face of that principle, and strips away fundamental rights from countless Californians. Proposition 8’s supporters won a temporary victory, but only after waging a misleading campaign based on fear, and bank-rolled by out-of-state interests. I am committed to using every resource at my disposal to secure the full civil rights of my constituents, and all Californians. We will not allow discrimination to be written into our State Constitution, and I am confident we will preserve equal rights for all. This is California.” The 34-page suit filed with the high court in San Francisco this afternoon argues that the California Constitution’s equal protection provisions do not allow a bare majority of voters to use the amendment process to divest politically disfavored groups of constitutional rights. Such a sweeping redefinition of equal protection would require a constitutional revision rather than a mere amendment, the petition argues. Article XVIII of the California Constitution provides that a constitutional revision may only be accomplished by a constitutional convention and popular ratification, or by legislative submission to the electorate. “In this nation, and in this state, we amend our Constitution to extend rights, not strip them away,” added Delgadillo. Today’s filing is attached. ### Suite 800, City Hall East Los Angeles, CA 90012 Phone: 213-978-8340 Fax: 213-978-2093 www.cityofla.org/atty/ FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Contact: Nick Velasquez WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 5, 2008 (213) 978-8340 Source: www.lacity.org/atty/News_.../attypr.htm (213) 507-4434 Sun, 16 Nov 2008 07:13:12 GMT http://gaymarriage.tribe.net/thread/8e1b9e7b-0548-492c-80ee-2f4157fdcd7a#d667f347-fc81-49f7-8d59-2dc4d168461b CCM 2008-11-16T07:13:12Z http://gaymarriage.tribe.net/thread/8e1b9e7b-0548-492c-80ee-2f4157fdcd7a#e7afcccf-781e-4563-9b6d-529e1225cbee The Mormon Church is in violation of IRS tax code (excessive lobbying for legislature): http://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/p1828.pdf Sun, 16 Nov 2008 03:09:07 GMT http://gaymarriage.tribe.net/thread/8e1b9e7b-0548-492c-80ee-2f4157fdcd7a#e7afcccf-781e-4563-9b6d-529e1225cbee CCM 2008-11-16T03:09:07Z http://gaymarriage.tribe.net/thread/8e1b9e7b-0548-492c-80ee-2f4157fdcd7a#932a380f-77d4-44b5-9681-59f84cb6fa74 The President-Elect has said we are in for a change or 2. He is committed (as it says on his webpage below) that he is committed to civil rights in our nation. He is asking for you vision of America--he needs to know that this issue needs to be beyond the states. He needs to know that no rights for some of our citizens is a bad thing.
