Constitutional amendment repealing the prohibition of same-sex marriage

This constitutional amendment would enshrine in the state constitution that marriage is one of the vital personal rights between two adults. Particularly, it states this Commonwealth shall not deny the issuance of a marriage license to two adults seeking a lawful marriage on the basis of the sex, gender, or race of such persons, effectively removing the ban on same-sex marriage. It also states any lawful marriage between two adult persons shall be treated equally under the law.
