Arizona voters who rejected a ballot measure on same-sex marriage two years ago may tackle the issue again in November. The House voted Monday to put a proposed state constitutional amendment to prohibit same-sex marriage on the ballot in Arizona, the only state where a ballot measure on marriage was rejected in 2006.
The House's 33-25 vote sent the resolution (SB10242) to the Senate, whose approval would complete legislative action to put the measure on the ballot.Arizona already has a state law that was enacted in 1996 and upheld in 2003 by a state appellate court that defines marriage as a union of one man and one woman.
