Measure 36 Resolution

[Jodi Unruh]

The majority of the Eugene City Councilors is taking a stand against a constitutional amendment to ban gay and lesbian marriages. The council passed a resolution Monday night to oppose Measure 36.

This isn't the first time that the Eugene City Councilors have passed a resolution like this. The most recent one was against the Patriot Act.

The councilors voted five to three to uphold a resolution against Measure 36. If passed, the measure would amend the Oregon constitution to state that only a marriage between one man and one woman shall be valid or legally recognized as a marriage.

The issue emerged after thousands of gay and lesbian couples got married in Multnomah County this year. A judge later voided those unions.
