In a statement released to the media, Attorney General Eric Holder explained that President Obama has decided that the definition of marriage contained in DOMA is unconstitutional, and has ordered that the Department of Justice should abdicate its constitutional duty and no longer defend DOMA against constitutional challenges. But it’s not too late. Attorney General Holder admitted that Congress now has the ability to step in and defend DOMA. And that’s why we need your help. Congress has the authority to independently defend the laws which it has passed. Congress must intervene to defend DOMA in federal court – especially now that the Department of Justice has formally announced that it will no longer do so.
