Perry] on the constitutionality of California's proposition 8 law. Nearly 18,000 same-sex couples were married in California, but same-sex marriages came to a halt in November 2008, when the state's voters passed Proposition 8, which amended the state constitution to eliminate the right of same-sex couples to get married. Questions by several justices focused on whether the central purpose of marriage was procreation, and on whether proponents of the ban had legal standing to bring the case after the state of California declined to do so when the referendum result was overturned by a federal court. http://www.c-spanvideo.org/program/311637-1 info@c-spanarchives.org (National Cable Satellite Corporation) Public Affairs Event http://www.c-spanvideo.org/program/311637-1 Tue, 26 Mar 2013 17:13:01 GMT Panelists spoke about the concept of life tenure for justices of the Supreme Court of the United States instead of a fixed term of years or a mandatory retirement age.
