COALITION FOR MARRIAGE RALLY IN BOSTON: From the Boston Globe

A new coalition of conservative political and religious groups that oppose same-sex marriage said yesterday that it hopes to tilt the scales in its favor by arguing that Bay State voters should be allowed to settle the divisive issue, not the Supreme Judicial Court.

The group, called the Coalition for Marriage, staged a rally in the State House yesterday, promising to advertise on television and radio,
knock on doors, and stage public meetings to generate outrage among Massachusetts voters that they have been denied a chance to weigh in on the gay marriage issue.

The goal, they said, is to persuade lawmakers to vote in favor of a proposed constitutional amendment to ban gay marriage at a constitutional convention Feb. 11. ...

...Today, a group of gay marriage supporters plans to hold a rally at the State House to support the ruling and argue against the proposed constitutional amendment that
would declare marriage the union of a man and a woman.
