Statement of Senator Barbara Boxer on California Supreme Court Decision
Unfortunately, with this decision, I am concerned that we are back to square one on the issue of equal rights for same-sex couples.
This ruling sets up a very unfair reality in California where some same-sex couples will have their marriages affirmed, while many more will be denied their fundamental rights.
I remain committed to working actively with people across the state to make sure that same-sex couples have equal rights under the law.
