Once again, the citizens of Arizona have an initiative on the November ballot to change our state's constitution.

Two years ago, we voted "no" on Proposition 107; this year it's Proposition 102, a slightly different version.

It would amend the Arizona Constitution to deny the option of marriage to same-sex couples. Not only did we vote "no" two years ago, but state law also already defines marriage as between one man and one woman.
