If Senator Cruz was to introduce such an amendment then I doubt he would get 51 votes in favor, much less the 67 needed to send it to the states.

You're absolutely correct, and the states wouldn't pass it either.

(sigh)

51 votes? Maybe 20. Most RINO’s wouldn’t support it. And no, the states wouldn’t pass it either. Not even sure if my beloved Texas would support such an Amendment.

This nation is doomed. Lost.

This is going to be a big test of how much traditional moral backbone exists, and how much is going to be grown soon, among the people (we know it’s a big bunch of flab in DC and most state houses).

From the viewpoint of men, salvation from the situation is not possible.

From the viewpoint of God, all things are possible.

Don't be so sure about the states not passing it.

It would be an uphill battle to be sure, but in every state that had a referendum (including the far left mecca of California), homosexual marriage lost. Clearly, voters are not in favor of homosexual marriage, regardless what the media claims.

A constitutional amendment would not pass in California because the Democrats are firmly in control of the legislature. But the Republicans now control most of the state legislatures and could pick up some more.
