"...amendment to the Constitution called the Federal Marriage Amendment (FMA), which states: "Marriage in the United States shall consist only of the union of a man and a woman. Neither this Constitution or the constitution of any State, nor state or federal law, shall be construed to require that marital status or the legal incidents thereof be conferred upon unmarried couples or groups."
"Charles Colson, founder of Prison Fellowship Ministries, reported in the April 13, 2004, edition of his "BreakPoint" commentary that he had recently met with a group of senior congressional staff who are concerned about the lack of public support for the FMA. They told him that "no senator was reporting any unusual number of calls or e-mails" from constituents.
"One conservative Midwest senator ... said he isn't sure he wanted to get involved in this issue because he hasn't heard from his constituents," Colson wrote. "He's not alone. This is tragic. Where are the Christians? Are we asleep?"
