Quote by Jack Kingston
So far, 44 States, or 88 percent of the States, have enacted laws providing that marriage shall consist of a union between a man and a woman. Only 75 percent of the States are required to approve a constitutional amendment.
Summary
This quote highlights the idea that a majority of states in the United States have passed laws defining marriage as between a man and a woman. Additionally, it points out that a constitutional amendment would require approval from only 75 percent of the states. This suggests that there is a significant majority of states that have already established traditional marriage definitions, making it potentially difficult to pass constitutional amendments in favor of alternative forms of marriage.
