DOMA

The Defense of Marriage Act is a United States federal law signed into law by the President Bill Clinton on September 21, 1996, whereby the federal government defines marriage as legal union between one man and one woman. Under this law known as DOMA, no state mat required to recognize marriage a same sex relationship. The word "marriage" means a legal union between one man and one woman as husband and wife and the spouse refers only to a person of the opposite sex who is a husband or a wife. I believe that if a persons choices to be homosexual, he or she has the right to be so not only because its there choice but because that's there life and they can live it however they want to. There is nobody to judge you or choice who you want to be. Its your life and live it to your fullest. I believe homosexual should be legal.
