About this Petition Pledge Petition Updates

Attention Delaware residents: Unlike most states, Delaware does not simply prohibit or refuse to recognize same-sex marriage. Delaware law says that a same-sex couple from Delaware who gets legally married in another state then returns to Delaware to live can be arrested, fined, or even jailed. To review the Delaware Code for yourself, see http://delcode.delaware.gov/title13/c001/sc01/index.shtml

Same-sex couples who get married in another state should not be treated as criminals. You do not need to support same-sex marriage in Delaware to be outraged by the unfairness of this law.

Please sign this petition and pass it along for others to sign.
