California voters to decide on repealing same-sex marriage ban in 2024

  • California's constitution currently prohibits same-sex marriage due to Proposition 8 passed in 2008.
  • The proposed amendment would repeal Proposition 8 and remove the ban from the state constitution.
  • Same-sex marriage has been legal in California since a 2013 Supreme Court ruling, but Proposition 8 remains on the books.
  • The amendment passed the state Senate and will be on the November 2024 ballot for voters to decide.
  • Polling shows a majority of Californians now support same-sex marriage rights.
