Cruz: Obama ‘should not be trying to force gay marriage on all 50 states’

I agree with Cruz 1000%!  Once again he’s standing up for traditional values while establishment Republicans cower in a fetal position afraid to fight Democrats!

Daily Callerreports a pair of Republican senators is looking to prevent the federal government from imposing conflicting definitions of marriage on the states.

Texas Republican Sen. Ted Cruz introduced a bill Wednesday to ensure that the 33 states that adhere to the traditional definition of marriage receive the same level of regard as the 17 states that recognize same-sex marriage. Utah Republican Sen. Mike Lee has co-sponsored the legislation.

According to Cruz and Lee, the Obama administration has been attempting to redefine marriage at the federal level and undermining states’ rights to define marriage in accordance with the desires of their citizens.

“The Obama Administration should not be trying to force gay marriage on all 50 states,” Cruz said in a statement Thursday. “We should respect the states, and the definition of marriage should be left to democratically elected legislatures, not dictated from Washington. This bill will safeguard the ability of states to preserve traditional marriage for its residents.” (RELATED: Supreme Court puts hold on gay marriages in Utah)
