House Report on DOMA

[sandnsea]

The DOJ writing a brief defending DOMA - is ugly because the House Report that was used to justify the passage of DOMA is ugly. The "scarce government resources" is a quote from that report. Everyone should read it. Remember the ugliness of those who fought to pass that law.

House Report 104-664

1. What year was this passed?

1996

3. Yes, that's right

I think it's sad more people aren't interested in the legal details of this case. They're much more interesting and politically useful than the hyperbole.
