A "yes" vote supports this constitutional amendment to:
repeal Proposition 8 (2008), which defined marriage as a union between one man and one woman, and
declare that a "right to marry is a fundamental right" in the California Constitution.
A "no" vote opposes this constitutional amendment, thus keeping Proposition 8 (2008), which defined marriage as a union between one man and one woman, in the California Constitution.
