Tucson, Arizona | Published: 02.21.2008
PHOENIX — A proposed ballot measure to impose a constitutional ban on same-sex marriage is advancing at the Legislature.
Approvals by House and Senate committees means a proposed constitutional amendment defining marriage as a union between a man and a woman could be considered by the full chambers as early as next week.
If it passes it would appear on the state's November ballot.
Arizona voters in 2006 rejected a same-sex marriage measure but the current proposal deletes wording that was interpreted as prohibiting government recognition of civil unions or domestic partnerships.
Opponents note that state law already bans same-sex marriage but supporters say they want marriage to have constitutional protection.
