_We support the traditional definition of "marriage" as the legal union of one man and one woman, and we believe that federal judges and bureaucrats should not force states to recognize other living arrangements as marriages.__We rely on the home, as did the founders of the American Republic, to instill the virtues that sustain democracy itself.__That belief led Congress to enact the Defense of Marriage Act, which a Republican Department of Justice will energetically defend in the courts.__For the same reason, we do not believe sexual preference should be given special legal protection or standing in law.
