Marriage is a sacred gift, sanctioned by God Himself. As such, marriage must be held in the highest regard, kept safe from those who would sully the institution.

According the the National Center for Policy Analysis, "no region of the United States has a higher divorce rate than the Bible Belt. Nearly half of all marriages break up, but the divorce rates in these southern states are roughly 50 percent above the national average."

According to George Barna Research Group, Massachusetts has the lowest divorce rate among all 50 states, a reliably progressive state.

9 of the 10 lowest divorce rates are in the Northeast states.

The Associated Press, using data supplied by the US Census Bureau, found that the highest divorce rates are to be found in the Bible Belt. The AP report stated that "the divorce rates in these conservative states are roughly 50 percent above the national average of 4.2 per thousand people."

By banning marriage for those citizens that describe themselves as conservative, we will drastically stem our nation's divorce rate and thus, protect the sanctity of this most holy of covenants.

We, the undersigned, call on The Congress of The United States of America, to ban all marriages and domestic partnerships for those citizens that are rightly designated as conservative in political ideology.
