PAR analyzes ban

Advocate staff report

Louisiana voters face only one proposed amendment to the state constitution on Sept. 18, but it's a hot one.

Amendment No. 1 would place the state's legal ban against same-sex marriages into the state constitution.

The Public Affairs Research Council has written a detailed analysis of the issue. It is available on PAR's Web site at http://www.la-par.org/.

The debate is emotional on both sides. PAR's analysis dispassionately explains the history of the issue and the arguments for and against the amendment.
