Good to hear. 37 states have already signed their own DOMA and that’s just enough to ratify an amendment.

And if Congress won’t propose the amendment, then 34 of statehouses can propose it per the US Constitution.

I think you are doing the math backwards. 13 states have legalized gay marriage. However, another 6 have legalized civil unions - this includes blue states like Hawaii an Illinois that would be very unlikely to pass a constitutional amendment. New Mexico has no position yet, leaving only 30 states that have banned gay marriage via statute on constitution.

Exactly. Do not heed the naysayers. This needs to become a national movement. Soon.
