Abstract

The court does not need to impugn the motives of voters to resolve the question of the constitutionality of Utah's marriage amendment. Charging voters with bias will unnecessarily marginalize those who disagree and chill public debate.

Keywords: court, motives, animus, voters, constitutionality, marriage amendment, bias, marginalize, chill, public debate
