Tea Party Stands In Support Of Marriage Protection
Kosciusko County Silent NO More announced today that it stands in support of the Indiana Marriage Protection Act, known as HJR6, that will be debated in the Indiana State Legislature in January, and ultimately sent to the voters of Indiana.
Kosciusko Silent NO More President Monica Boyer stated, “Many people have asked why a Tea Party group would engage in the battle to protect marriage in Indiana. I would answer that question with two words, ‘Religious Freedom.’
“Redefining marriage forces everyone else, including churches, schools and business owners, to affirm homosexual relationships, denying people their religious freedom and opinion. Facts have proven over and over again, that when we allow a group to re-define marriage, those who hold religious convictions are criminalized,” said Boyer.
Amy Prosser, vice president of KSNM added, “The marriage amendment forces nothing new upon anyone. Changing marriage has already had devastating effects on adoption services, family law, divorce law, schools, religious freedom, free speech and the rights of conscience. Marriage is the cornerstone of a strong society. There is no governmental substitute for a married mom and dad. Where marriage declines or loses its meaning, government expands, children suffer and freedom erodes.”
Boyer further stated, “We believe the future and definition of marriage should belong in the hands of Hoosiers and not the federal government, courts, or media. We are focused, and we will step up to the front lines to fight for our families and religious freedom in the upcoming months”
