Re:
Section 2 of the "Defense of Marriage Act"
As you know, the President has stated that he intends to sign the Defense of Marriage
Act (the "Act"), if and when it is presented to him. Although we have previously indicated that
we believe that the Act, if challenged, will withstand judicial scrutiny, a recent short article in
the New York Times by Professor Laurence H. Tribe appears to take issue with that conclusion.
See Laurence H. Tribe, Toward a Less Perfect Union. N.Y. Times, May 26, 1996 at E l l
("N.Y. Times"). We have studied the article and have reviewed our prior analysis, and we
remain convinced that the courts will uphold the Act against constitutional challenge. Professor
Tribe's article reaches a contrary conclusion only by reading the Act ~ inappropriately, we
believe -- to permit a state to decline to recognize same sex marriages even where the state has
not manifested a strong public policy against same sex marriage.
I.
The Defense of Marriage Act would add a new section to the portion of the United States
Code that implements the Full Faith and Credit Clause of the Constitution, §ee U.S. Const, art.
IV, § 1. That section would, in relevant part, provide:
No State, territory, or possession of the United States, or Indian
tribe, shall be required to give effect to any public act, record, or
judicial proceeding of any other State, territory, possession, or
tribe respecting arelationshipbetween persons of the same sex that

is treated as a marriage under the laws of such other State,
territory, possession or tribe, or arightor claim arising from such
relationship.

H.R. 3396, sec. 2(a); S. 1740, sec. 2(a).
Professor Tribe argues that Congress lacks authority, under the Full Faith and Credit
Clause or otherwise, to enact such a provision. Although he concedes that a state may "decline
to enforce certain determinations of another on 'public policy' grounds," such as declining to
recognize a bigamous marriage entered in another state, the states may do so, as Professor Tribe
notes, without any special "Congressional license."
N.Y. Times at E l l . The Act, in
Professor Tribe's view, must thus be construed to do more than this, and to permit a state to
refuse to give effect to same sex marriages entered in another state, even where the forum state
lacks a sufficient public policy ground for doing so. In short, Professor Tribe construes the Act
to grant states "authority to treat a sister state's binding acts as though they were the acts of a
foreign nation ~ authority that Congress has no constitutional power to confer." Supra.
Without reaching the question whether Congress has authority to set full faith and credit
standards that might fall short of those that would apply without an act of Congress, we conclude
that Professor Tribe's analysis is flawed. In our view, section 2 of the Act is properly construed
simply to permit states that have a strong public policy opposed to same sex marriage, as
manifested, for example by a statute declaring such a policy, to decline torecognizesuch
marriages entered in other states. Under this construction, the provision raises no serious
constitutional issue, but simply implements the long-settled rule that the Full Faith and Credit
Clause makes the conflict of law rules enforceable as a matter of constitutional law. This
approach, moreover, property construes the Act so as to avoid a serious constitutional issue, and
does not, as Professor Tribe suggests, render the Act meaningless.

Article IV, section 1 of the Constitution contains two separate clauses. The first, which
we will refer to herein as the "Full Faith and Credit Clause," states:
1
The Act would also amend title 1 of the United States Code to provide that, for the purpose of
interpreting "any Act of Congress, or of any ruling,regulation,or interpretation of the various administrative
bureaus and agencies of the United States, the word 'marriage' means only a legal union between one man
and one woman as husband and wife, and the word 'spouse* refers only to a person ofthe opposite sex who
is a husband or a wife." H.R. 3396, sec. 3; S. 1740, sec. 3. We believe that, if challenged, the courts would
also uphold this provision, which establishes a uniform definition of marriage for purposes of federal law.
Because the Tribe article does not take issue with the constitutionality of this provision, wc do not address
it herein.

Although all of section 1 of Article IV is sometimes referred to as the "Full Faith and Credit Clause,"
for purposes of clarity, we will refer to the two sentences separately.
- 2-

Full Faith and Credit shall be given in each State to the public
Acts, Records, and judicial Proceedings of every other State.
The second sentence, which we willreferto as the "Effects Clause," adds:
And the Congress may by general Laws prescribe the Manner in
which such Acts, Records and Proceedings shall be proved, and
the Effects thereof.
It is clear that the first sentence of Article IV, section 1 cannot be construed literally.
As the Supreme Court observed in Alaska Packers Ass'n v. Industrial Accident Commission,
294 U.S. 532, 547 (1935), "[a]rigidand literal enforcement of the full faith and credit clause,
withoutregardto the statute of the forum, would lead to the absurd result that, wherever the
conflict arises, the statute of each state must be enforced in the courts of the other, but cannot
be in its own." See also Douglas Laycock, Equal Citizens of Equal and Territorial States: The
Constitutional Foundations of Choice of Law. 92 Colum. L. Rev. 249, 295-96 (1992). It has
long been recognized that the Full Faith and Credit Clause does not require such an absurdity,
but rather makes "conflicts principles enforceable as a matter of constitutional command rather
than leaving enforcement to the vagaries of the forum's view of comity." Sun Oil Co. v.
Wortman. 486 U.S. 717, 723 n.l (1988).
The Supreme Court, moreover, hasrepeatedlyheld that the governing conflict of laws
rules - and thus the Full Faith and Credit Clause — do "not require a State to apply another
State's law in violation of its own legitimate public policy." Nevada v. Hall. 440 U.S. 410, 422
(1979V. see also Pacific Employers Ins. Co. v. Industrial Accident Comm'n. 306 U.S. 493, 502
(1939); Alaska Packers Ass'n. 294 U.S. at 546; Hood v. McGehee. 237 U.S. 611 (1915);
plmsted v. Olmsted, 216 U.S. 386 (1910). Although the Supreme Court has never had occasion
to decide whether the public policy exception provides a constitutionally adequate basis for a
state to decline to recognize a marriage validly entered in a sister state, numerous state courts
have applied the exception in this context. These courts have concluded that a marriage valid
in the state where it was entered need not be given effect in the forum state, if to do so would
contravene a strong public policy of that state. Indeed, as far as we are aware, no judicial

decision - stale or federal ~ has reached a contrary conclusion. States have declined to
recognize on public policy grounds bigamous and polygamous marriages, incestuous marriages,
and for some period of time, interracial marriages.
5
We note that the Act does not provide the forum stete with authority to invalidate a
marriage entered in a sister state, but rather provides only that the forum state is not "required
to give effect to" a same sex marriage entered in another state. This distinction is an important
one under the controlling conflict of laws rules. In general, a forum state may only declare a
marriage entered in another state invalid if the forum state "had the most significant relationship
to the spouses and the marriage at the time of the marriage." Restatement (Second) of Conflict
of Laws § 283(2). In contrast,regardlessof whether the forum state had significant contacts
with the individuals or marriage at the time of the marriage, "[a] state [needl not give a
particular incident to a foreign marriage when to do so would be contrary to its strong local
policy." 1^ at 284, cmt. c (emphasis added). Examples of the "incidents" of marriage include
therightslawfully to cohabit, to share in marital property, and to obtain an intestate share of
the estate of a deceased spouse. Sgg id at cmt. a.
We are left with little doubt that the courts would not construe the Full Faith and Credit
Clause to require a state, in contravention of its own strong public policy, to give effect to a
same sex marriage entered in another state.

Professor Tribe does not take issue with this conclusion, and, indeed, appears to concede
that the case law under the Full Faith and Credit Clause permits a state to decline, on the basis
of a strong public policy, torecognizea mamagerecognizedin another state. Rather, he seems
to argue that the Act must be construed to do more than this. We disagree.

The Supreme Court has held that the Fourteenth Amendment prohibits states fromrefusingto recognize
interracial marriages. S ^ Loving V. Virginia. 388 U.S. 1 (1967). The Court's holding in Loving, however,
is premised, inter alia, on the strict scrutiny given to racial classifications in equal protection analysis. The
Supreme Court has not afforded classifications based on sexual preference (his heightened level of scrutiny.

neither validates nor invalidates same sex marriages.
Instead, the Act simply provides tlW [n]o State . . . shall be required to give effect to" same
sex marriages. H.R. 3396, sec. 2(a); S. 1740, sec. 2(a). The word "required" suggests that
Congress sought to make clear that states may not be forced, against their own public policy,
to recognize same sex marriages. The question is whether the Act is properly construed to allow
a state to decline to recognize a same sex marriage under any circumstances or whether the state
must, as a prerequisite for doing so, have a strong public policy against same sex marriages.
In our view, courts will almost certainly adopt the latter construction. Significantly, the broader
reading of the statute would do little more than address a difficult, hypothetical scenario that is
unlikely ever to arise. Moreover, as discussed in greater detail below, this construction of the
Act is not only consistent with, but is compelled by, traditional rules of statutory construction.
M
A.
At base, Professor Tribe seems to argue that the Act is unconstitutional because it cannot
reasonably be construed simply to repeat what the Full Faith and Credit Clause already requires
and because to do more would exceed Congress' power. This argument, however, is
inconsistent with the apparent views of the First Congress.
On May 26, 1790, the First Congress enacted what is now 28 U.S.C. § 1738. The Act
of May 26, 1790 set forth the substantive standard to be applied by the states under the Full
Faith and Credit Clause. See Act of May 26, 1790, ch. 11, 1 Stat. 122. In particular, Congress
provided that properly authenticatedrecordsand judicial proceedings should be accorded the
same "faith and credit" as they would receive "by law or usage in the courts of the state from
whence the saidrecordsare or shall be taken." I i . It is unclear whether this provision was
intended simply to repeat the self-executing rule embodied in the Full Faith and Credit Clause
or whether it was intended to give the rule some additional force through the exercise of
Congress' power under the Effects Clause. Under eitherreading,however, the First Congress
was plainly doing what Professor Tribe says Congress cannot now do: It was either clarifying
for the states its understanding of the meaning of the Full Faith and Credit Clause - as we
believe Congress would be doing in enacting the Defense of Marriage Act - or it was using its
power under the Effects Clause to modify the operative rule. Given the special weight given
to early congressional enactments in interpreting the Constitution, s§e Myers v. United States.
272 U.S. 52, 175 (1926); Lvnch v. DonneUv. 465 U.S. 668, 674 (1984), it seems clear that
Professor Tribe's argument proves too much.
We also disagree with Professor Tribe's suggestion that our construction of the Act would
render the Act meaningless. As an initial matter we note that it is not meaningless for Congress
to pass a law that seeks to clarify existing constitutional standards. As discussed above, the Full
Faith and Credit Clause works to constitutionalize existing conflict of law rules. These rules,
however, are by no means clear. In Federalist No. 42, Madison noted that the meaning of the
Full Faith and Credit Clause, which had appeared in substantially the same form in the Articles
of Confederation, was "extremely indeterminate" and that the power conferred on Congress
under the Effects Clause would accordingly work "an evident and valuable improvement on the
-5 -

El 008
clause," apparently by empowering Congress torenderthe Clause more determinate. The
Federalist No. 42. at 271 (James Madison) (Clinton Rossiter ed., 1961). It is thus apparent that
the Framers envisioned, at a minimum, that Congress would have the power to clarify the effect
of the Full Faith and Credit Clause. The Act serves this purpose by making clear to the states
that they are not required, as a matter of federal constitutional law, to give effect to same sex
marriages.
1
Second, although it is unsettled whether Congress may enact legislation under the Effects
Clause that restricts the measure of ftill faith and credit that one state must accord the acts,
judgments or records of another state, Congress has enacted legislation that expands upon the
protection of full faith in particular circumstances, and at least four justices of the Supreme
Court have indicated that Congress has the power to do so. Courts have at times, moreover,
applied section 1738 in a manner that was arguably more expansive than required by the text of
the Full Faith and Credit Clause standing alone. See, e.g,, Thomas v. Washington Gas Light
Co.. 448 U.S. 261, 270 (1980) (four Justice plurality) ("This rule, if not compelled by the Full
Faith and Credit Clause itself, . . . is surelyrequiredby 28 U.S.C. § 1738"). To the extent any
question exists as to whether section 1738requiresmore than would be required by the Full
Faith and Credit Clause alone, Congress surely has authority to clarify that, in the case of same
sex marriages, this greater measure of full faith and credit will not apply.

Professor Tribe asserts that "Congress has no constitutional power to confer" authority
on the states to decline torecognizeacts, records or judicial proceedings of other states where,
absent legislation, the Full Faith and Credit Clause wouldrequirerecognition.This conclusion
is not self-evident. N.Y. Times at E l l . Yet, even if Professor Tribe is correct, his argument
simply provides support for our belief that the courts willreasonablyinterpret the Act in a
manner that avoids this constitutional issue.

Sro 28 U.S.C. § 1738A (child custody determinations); 28 U.S.C. § 1738B (child support orders); and
18 U.S.C. § 2265 (protection orders).
7
In Thomas v. Washington Gas Light Co.. 448 U.S. 261, 273 n. 18 (1980) (four Justice plurality), Justice
Stevens wrote:
[W]hiie Congress clearly has the power to increase the measure of faith and credit that a
State must accord to the laws or judgments of another State, there is at least some question
whether Congress may cut back on the measure of faith and credit required by a decision of
this Court.
In Thompson v. Thompson. 484 U.S. 174 (1988), moreover, the Court assumed, without discussing, that
Congress acted within its power when it enacted the Parental Kidnapping Prevention Act, which was intended
to provide greater full faith and credit protection to child custody determinations than required by the common
law rules given constitutional force through the Full Faith and Credit Clause. Sgs

Professor Tribe seems to argue that, as he construes it, the Act would limit the scope of
the full faith and credit one state need afford another state's law. The Supreme Court has
observed that the question whether the Effects Clause authorizes Congress to "cut back on the
measure of faith and credit required by" judicial interpretation of the Full Faith and Credit
Clause is unsettled. Thomas. 448 U.S. at 273 n.18. It can bereasonablyargued, however, that
the Full Faith and Credit Clause constitutionalized conflict of laws principles, see Sun Oil Co..
486 U.S. at 723 n.l; that "[t]he conflicts law embodied in the Full Faith and Credit Clause
allows room for common-law development;" ijL at 724 n.l (dicta); and that Congress may, in
fact, alter the conflicts laws under the Effects Clause, sge id, at 729 (dicta). See also Pacific
Employers Ins. Co., 306 U.S. at 502 (Congress has not prescribed "extra-state effect" of
statutes, but "may [do so] under the constitutional provision").
Concededly, such a construction would confer a substantial power on Congress that to
date has gone without clear recognition, and it would allow Congress to adopt laws arguably
inimical to the "very purpose of the full faith and credit clause" of "alter[ing] the status of the
several states as independent foreign sovereignties," Milwaukee County v. M.E. White Co.. 296
U.S. 268, 276-77 (1935). The failure of early Congresses to enact national conflict of laws
statutes pursuant to the Effects Clause is arguablyrelevantas evidence of the Framers' intent.
However, as Justice Robert Jackson wrote, "it cannot be doubted that Congress is invested with
a range of power greatly exceeding that which it has seen fit to exercise," and the failure of
early Congresses to enact conflict of laws statutes is not at all suiprising in light of the "hazy
knowledge" that the Framers hadregardingthe subject. Robert H. Jackson, The Full Faith and
Credit - The Lawyer's Clause of the Constitution. 45 Colum. L . Rev. 1, 6, 21 (1945). The
constitutional goal of "alter[ing] the status of the several states," similarly, does not compel the
conclusion that Congress may not enact conflict laws that give effect to the competing policies
of different states. Rather, the status of the states as separate sovereigns was altered by giving
Congress the authority to dictate the governing law. £ee Sun Oil Co.. 486 U.S. at 723 n.l.
Regardless of which argument in the end prevails, there can be little doubt the
constitutional issue presented is the sort of difficult question of first impression that courts,
where possible, avoid through statutory construction. As the Supreme Court has observed:
8
"Federal statutes are to be so construed as to avoid serious doubt
of their constitutionality. 'When the validity of an act of Congress
is drawn in question, and even if a serious doubt of
constitutionality is raised, it is a cardinal principle that this Court
will first ascertain whether a construction of the statute is fairly
8
Assuming that Congress may alter the conflicts laws under the Effects' Clause, we are still left with the
difficult question whether the Full Faith and Credit Clause establishes some fundamental, overriding principles
of conflicts that are beyond common-law or congressional development or modification. See, e.g.. Robert
H. Jackson, Full Faith and Credit - The Lawyer's Clause of the Constitution. 45 Colum. L . Rev. 1, 30
(1945). The existence of this substantial question, however, simply reinforces our conclusion that the Act
should be construed in a manner that is consistent with settled law.

contrary to the intent of Congress," Edward J. DeBartolo Corp. v. Florida Gulf Coast Bldg. &
Constr. Trades Council. 485 U.S. 568, 575 (1988), but unless left with "no reasonable
alternative," courts will avoid "serious constitutional questions," United States v. Five Gambling
Devices. 346 U.S. 441, 448-49 (1953) (plurality opinion).
Here, we believe that Professor Tribe's construction of the Act would raise a serious
constitutional question and that our proposed reading of the Act reasonably avoids this question.
Thus, even if Congress cannot enact substantive conflicts rules that limit the measure of full faith
and credit that the courts would otherwise require, the courts will almost certainly construe the
Act in a constimtional manner.

backed the idea of keeping marriage
rhe way it is now, he desmbed ihe legislative move as "mean-spirited and
iiiuietxaibury" and called for a commission to look at the legal and policy issues that samc-sex marriages raise.
"Let's find nut how wc can live together with otir differences rather than divide over the issue of sexual orientarion," Romer wrote. Uther governors,
howrvrr, have gene rhe otlier way,
with Governor Bill Graves making

like nothing more than to link him
with gay marriage, a concept a vast

White House spokeswoman made the
comment late lasr year lhat Clinton
"doesn't think that same-se* mar
riagcu should be outlawed," some
conservative groups concluded that
Clinton cvcnwally would endorse gay
marriage. "Mark my words, if Bill
Clinton is reelected, be will fight for
this tooth and nail." said Martin
Mawyer, president of die Chrisrian
Aerinn Network, a conservative group
that is heavily involved in efforts to
stop gay mamage.
Mawyer is encouraging Sen. Bob
Dolt who will be the Republican presidential nominee, to raise the issue in
tlie coming debarr widi Clinton. In
fact. Mawyer says lhat if Dole sieers
dear uf die topic he will lose the dec-
tion- "We already see that Dofc wants
to make this an election about coraputence, not ideolojjv. The last guy who
tried that is shucking clams on Martha's Vineyard" Mawyer said
Like Clinton, Dole opposes samcsex maniage But unlike Clintoa Dole
publicly supported a campaign to ban
gay marriages across the United
States. And he sent a letter to gaymarriage opponents saying the pledge
"does not go far enough" to strengthen the family. Dole's point here had
nothing to do with homosexualiiy—he
went on to say, for example, that government should lower the tax burden
fur families with children-but gay
rights leaders remain angry over his
choice of words.
But will Dole make gay marriage a
enmpaign is»ue? Rnnd said Republicans "arc going to have to tum to

Campaign, a gay political group, said
he was not convinced Dole would go

Re:
Same-Sex Marriage/Full Faith and Credit Clause
You have asked us to take a quick look at whether the Full Faith and Credit Clause of
Article IV of the Constitution would require states to recognize Hawaiian same-sex marriages
(assuming that such relationships soon may be authorized under the laws of Hawaii).
The Full Faith and Credit Clause provides that "Full Faith and Credit shall be given
in each State to the public Acts, Records, and judicial Proceedings of every other State."
Recognition by the courts and legislature of Hawaii of the validity of same-sex marriages
would constitute "Acts, Records, and judicial Proceedings" within the meaning of the Full
Faith and Credit Clause. However, applying basic principles set forth by the U.S. Supreme
Court, the Full Faith and Credit Clause would not obligate the other 49 states to give effect
to Hawaiian same-sex marriages if such action would contravene the public policy of those
states.
A complete assessment of the Full Faith and Credit Clause implications of the
recognition of same-sex marriages by Hawaii would require a state-by-state inquiry. Based
on our limited research into the matter, it appears that a large number of states would be able
to show an existing public policy against same-sex marriages. This would obviously be the
case in states that, by statute, bar same-sex marriage ~ either through an explicit statutory
prohibition or through other provisions that limit the scope of permissible marital
relationships. Even where the issue cannot be resolved through an analysis of relevant state
statutes, a public policy against same-sex marriage might also be reflected in state
administrative rules and practices and state court decisions refusing to recognize such
relationships.

Second Regular Session
Denver, CO 80202
Ladies and Gentlemen:
1 am returning to you House Bill 96-1291, "Concerning the Invalidity of Marriages
Between Persons ofthe Same Sex", which 1 vetoed today at
: i f f f ? ) i f . This
letter sets forth my reasoning for vetoing this bill.
1 want the people of Colorado to clearly understand that my veto does not mean that
same sex marriages will be legal in Colorado. It does not mean that a church or anyone
else will be forced to perform or recognize same sex marriages. Colorado law is very
clear that marriage is reserved for the union ofa man and a woman That is our policy.
I support it. It does not change by my action today.
The expressed motive for this bill is to preserve the definition of marriage in Colorado
from the actions of Hawaii, which may some day extend marriage to include persons of
the same sex. This issue may arise because, under the Full Faith and Credit Clause of
the U.S. Constitution, states honor and recognize certain actions of other states,
marriage being one ofthe most obvious examples.
However, HB 1291 does not adequately resolve this issue. Tn fact it raises, but does not
properly address, other important constitutional issues?, including the posr.ibility of
discrimination against gays and lesbians.
Three principles underlie my action today:
First, I believe that mairiage in Colorado should be reserved for the union ofa man and
woman. That is our current law and I think it should remain our law There is a long
standing, historic, cultural, religious and civil tradition for the iiibiuulion of marriage.
Wc should continue that tradition, preserving the institution of marriage for the union of
a man and a woman
Second, I believe that decisions on this subject should be made by Coloradans and not
by people in other states. Wc should not permit our law to be altered by the action of

another state. We should take whatever appropriate steps may be necessary to protect,
our policy.
Third, T believe that those members of our society who join in a long-term, committed
relationship with a person of the same sex should be acknowledged as fellow human
beings and fellow citizens 1 believe, for example, that they should have access to each
other in a hospital room when one partner is dying. We need a discussion on how our
law should evolve to give stability and protection to their relationship in situations like
this.
I believe these principles arc shared by most Coloradans. What are we to do when we
look across the church congregation, our service clubs, or our workplace and see a gay
or lesbian person, a human being who wants to live his or her life in the most
responsible and caring way possible, and commits to sharing lite , with a person of the
same sex? What arc wc to say as a society about that relationship? Do we condemn
them Shouldn't they be able to live their lives to the fullest, in a responsible and caring
way
9
9
These arc the questions I am putting on the tabic. They don't readily lead to simple or
bumper sticker solutions, but life is not always simple, and complex problems arc rarely
solved by bumper sticker slogans.
Tt is one thing to believe - as 1 do - that mamage is for the union of a man and woman.
Tt is quite another to believe that committed same sex relationships do not exist and
should not be recognized by society. We cannot prohibit or ban these relationships, and
we shouldn't use our law to attempt to do so.
Let's find out how we can live together with our dilTerences, rather than divide over the
issue of sexual orientation.
I'm making this simple appeal to the Legislature and the people of Colorado let's come
to terms with this issue, as elected officials, as friends, as neighbors, as members of a
community, as members ofa church, as Coloradans.
There is a right way to proceed, and a wrong way. There is a unifying way, and a
divisive way There is a thoughtful way, and a simplistic way.
I believe HB 12SH fails on all these counts
HB 1291 does not adequately do the job. 1 know some suppon this bill because they
believe it deals with the constitutional issues raised by the courts in Hawaii. Some
support it because ihey view it as a re-affirmation of our t raditional structure of

marriage. But let's be honest: some support this bill because it is a way to single out
and condemn the lifestyle ofgay and lesbian people.
Regardless of motivation, the bill I have before me now is simplistic and divisive. It 1
3
simplistic because it ignores important legal and constitutional questions and addresses
only one part ofthe issue. It is divisive because it singles out a group of Coloradans for
condemnation, equating their relationships with incest and bigamy. That is hurtful, and
it is counter to Colorado's rich tradition of tolerance and freedom.
Wc can be pro-family, without being unfair to gay and lesbian people.
We can re-affirm our commitment to marriage between a man and a woman without
condemning those who have different relationships.
The proponents of this bill say they want to ensure that same sex marriages from Hawaii
or some other state are not recognized in Colorado under the Full Faith and Credit
Clause of the U.S. Constitution. But the way the bill is drafted is to ban same sex
marriages in the "'prohibited marriages" section of our marnage statute, alongside
bigamy and incest. This is mean-spirited and unnecessary. We do not need to forbid or
"ban" same sex relationships to protect ourselves under the Full Faith and Credit
Clause. Moreover, structuring legislation this way may invite lawsuits against
Colorado based on discrimination and the Equal Protection Clause
In fact, I am not entirely convinced we need any new statutory language. Colorado law
already clearly states that marriage is between a man and a woman. But if some believe
wc need to reaffirm and strengthen our current law to make it absolutely clear that
marriage is between a man and a woman, we can do just that. To preserve our law as it
is, the Full Faith and Credit Clause only requires us to indicate that our "strong public
policy" is that marriage is between a man and a woman. To strengthen thnt posture, wc
may want to specify that conflicting out-of-state marriages will not be recognized as
against this public policy.
1 would sign legislation that does two things: (1) States that "It is the strong public
policy of Colorado that marriage shall only be between a man and a woman. It is the
policy of Colorado only to recognize marriages from other states that are between a
man and a woman." This will give us more than enough protection against a Full Faith
and Credit challenge from Hawaii or any other state And it does so with language that
is constructive and not discriminatory.
(2) The second change I would require before I sign legislation is language based on an
amendment introduced by State Senator Dottie Wham, which would provide a
commission to review and evaluate the legal and policy issues involved in recognizing
same-sex relationships. This commission, which would be composed of members

appointed by the Legislature and myself, would report back to Colorado on its findings
by a date certain. I am open to working with the Legislature on when such a report
would be issued.
Why do I think a commission is important'' Because this is a serious issue, and it
requires a thoughtful and thorough debate. We have not yet had such a debate. Wc
must come together as a community to have a rational discussion about these issues and
attempt to find some common ground upon which we can agree.
Send me a bill with the two changes I've outlined and I will sign it. The approach 1
havo outlined will strengthen our legal posture against challenges under the Full Faith
and Credit clause and other constitutional challenges. Most important of all, it will
allow us to act on reason and not out of fear. That is in the best tradition of Colorado
and our people. It is an approach that will unite, and not divide us

MEMORANDUM FOR THE PRESIDENT
FROM:
JACK QUINN
^
COUNSEL TOnHE PRESIDENT
SUBJECT:
GAY MARRIAGE
The White House has received numerous inquiries concerning your position on gay
marriage. In addition, The Advocate, a widely-read gay and lesbian newspaper, is planning
to publish a story on this issue and would like to include a statement of your position. The
deadline for that story is tomorrow - Tuesday, April 9.
With input from Marsha Scott, we have prepared the attached talking points. George
Stephanopoulos has reviewed and approved them.
The institutions of traditional marriage and family face tremendous pressures in
today's society. We must do everything we can to support and strengthen
these institutions. The President has previously said that he does not personally
support same-sex marriages.
The President is aware that many communities and institutions are considering
whether certain basic benefits can be provided outside the context of traditional
marriage. The challenge in addressing these issues is to remain sensitive to the
traditional values of our communities while preserving the fundamental right to
live free from unjustified discrimination.
In our country's history we have, for good reason, looked first to state and
local governments, as well as the private sector, to consider issues like these
involving community values and matters of conscience. The President believes
that these issues continue to be best resolved at this level of civil discourse.
Recommendation
That you approve the talking points set forth above.

have outlined will strengthen our legal posture against challenges under the Full Faith
and Credit clause and other constitutional challenges. Most important of all, it will
allow us to act on reason and not out of fear. That is in the best tradition of Colorado
and our people. It is an approach that will unite, and not divide us.

MEMORANDUM FOR THE PRESIDENT
FROM:
KATH^EEtfWALLMAI
DEPtJTYJ^OUNSEL TO THE PRESIDENT
SUBJECT:
In the event that you are asked about gay marriage at tomorrow morning's coffee,
Jack Quinn recommends that you respond along the following lines. These talking points
were prepared with input from Marsha Scott.
The institutions of traditional marriage and family face tremendous pressures in
today's society. We must do everything we can to support and strengthen
these institutions. I have previously said that I do not personally support samesex marriages.
I am aware that many communities and institutions are considering ways,
outside the context of traditional marriage, to address issues relating to samesex partnerships, including whether certain basic benefits can be provided to
same-sex partners. The challenge in addressing these issues is to remain
sensitive to the traditional values of our communities while preserving the
fundamental right to live free from unjustified discrimination.
In our country's history we have, for good reason, looked first to state and
local governments, as well as the private sector, to consider issues like these
involving community values and matters of conscience. I believe that issues
relating to same-sex partnerships continue to be best resolved at this level of
civil discourse.
