"Gov. Schwarzenegger has done the right thing in promising to veto this illegal bill. It's evidence that CWA of California and other pro-family groups got their message through to him: 'We don't want counterfeit marriage,'"
"We're also pleased that the governor vetoed two other pro-homosexual bills.

He can either side with the 61 percent of Californians who voted to protect marriage in a statewide initiative, or he can side with the radical Democrats."
