This is the work of Mike Heath of the Christian Civic League of Maine:

    PROPOSED REFERENDUM OFFICIAL WORDING: "Do you want to protect traditional marriage and eliminate special rights in Maine?"

    SUMMARY: The initiative would limit marriage to one man and one woman. It would forbid the establishment of civil unions and change adoption law so that only one person, or a married couple, may adopt. The measure would remove the designation "sexual orientation" from the Maine Human Rights Act and eliminate state funding for the Attorney General's civil rights teams.
