Jordan 11 Lowひっちぃ2015年7月20日 Governor Beshear and Attorney General Jack Conway, both Democrats, are defendants in that case, but their defense of Kentucky marriage amendment is tepid at best. Beshear and Conway stress that they are only defending Section 233A out of duty.Instead of mounting a vigorous defense of Kentucky amendment and the right of states to regulate marriage, Beshear and Conway meekly say that they "recognize the changing environment of marriage jurisprudence throughout this country and defer to the Court determination in the instant case." They offer the bare minimum defense of the Kentucky Constitution.So here is the current status of federal equal protection law: The government has a rational basis for preventing grocery stores from selling liquor and wine even though grocery selling drug stores can sell liquor and wine, but the government does not have a rational basis for defending traditional marriage even though that institution has been a cultural cornerstone for several centuries.
