Bill Would Federalize Recognition of Same-Sex & Some Polygamous Marriages
The NC Values Coalition denounced NC Senators Tillis’ and Burr’s votes yesterday for HR8404, aka the “Pathway to Polygamy” bill. The group says the bill is an assault on religious freedom, as the bill puts faith-based adoption and foster care agencies, businesses, non-profits and churches all in the line of fire for litigation. The bill federally recognizes same sex marriage and also state-sanctioned polygamous marriages allowing one person to be married to multiple partners.
