A state certainly has no right to end marriage. The right to marry is one of the fundamental rights of this country.
1st cousins are another example of states control of marriage. In about half the country, 1st cousin marriages are illegal. In the other half, 1st cousin marriage is legal and permitted.

marriage is a Constitutionally protected right that a state cannot simply come in and ban it.
In 24 states, the marriage of first cousins is illegal.
In 19 states, first cousins are permitted to wed.
7 additional states allow first-cousin marriage but with conditions.

None of those are outlawing marriage itself. In the first example that is not between two consenting adults and the second example should be allowed.

Many Supreme Court Justices along with the Current Chief Justice would disagree with you.

It's not constitutionally protected.
I don't know why people would be against at least civil unions for everyone. Marriage generally has a stabilizing affect on society.

A right that a citizen has does not need to be explicitly written in the Constitution for it to be protected.

This bill does nothing of the sort no matter how many times you repeat that.

Exactly.
I wish I had as much faith in Politicians and Judges as bootlickers like Mickey.

You can go get married. The state is not obligated to provide you any benefits or support based on your marital status. They don't have to recognize it. They don't have to make any allowances whatsoever. When you get done hyperventilating and calm down, try to read slower. You don't get to force everyone else to care about your boyfriend.

And it will be used and abused like a cheap whore before it DOES go before a final vote.
Hell, with Democrats in control, there will be changes to the Bill AFTER it is passed.

Tell me about the rights of two 18y/o's to elope and marry in Nebraska. Tell me about the right of an 11y/o w/ parental consent to marry a 30y/o in California. How about, the right of that 11y/o w/ parental consent to marry a 30y/o in Arkansas.
How does the US Constitution address those "rights"?

Luckily we aren't a true Democracy. It's amazing that all of these "conservatives" are all about giving all their rights to the state and federal government, but somehow argue that citizens do not have rights specifically reserved for them. Of course, they are also arguing against people like James Madison who wrote a document called the Bill of Rights.
