To all Australian Politicians

Many young Australians grow up with the expectation that when they choose to, they will be able to marry the person they love. Due to the current discriminatory nature of the Marriage amendment act of 2004 a percentage of these young Australians will never get this opportunity. This petition calls for a conscience vote among the House of Representatives on amending the legal definition of marriage to the union of a two adults to the exclusion of all others, voluntarily entered into for life, and the removal of s 88EA of the Marriage Act 1961 which states that

Certain unions are not marriages

A union solemnised in a foreign country between:

(a) a man and another man; or

(b) a woman and another woman;

must not be recognised as a marriage in Australia.
