Cubin's vote tramples on Constitution, Republican claims
Did you think the vote of House representatives trying to prevent judges from reviewing the Defense of Marriage Act would be without repercussions? U.S. Rep. Barbara Cubin of Wyoming voted in favor and now she stands accused of trampling a fundamental principle of the U.S. Constitution. Her accuser? Cale Case, one of her Republican challengers. Cubin announced her support of the bill to prevent "unelected, lifetime-appointed federal judges from forcing states like Wyoming to accept same-sex marriage licenses granted in other states." "This is not about gay marriage," Case said. "This is about our form of government and the fact that Congress cannot impose laws that violate the Constitution."
