California Family Council: "Today the California State Legislature sent Senate Bill 572, authored by Senator Mark Leno (D-San Francisco) to Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger for his signature.

Assembly has approved SB 54 authored by Senator Mark Leno (D-San Francisco): "SB 54 requires the state of California to validate and recognize same-sex marriages performed outside the state of California prior to November 5, 2008. The bill specifically violates Article I, Section 7.5 of the California Constitution which states 'Only marriage between a man and a woman is valid or recognized in California.'"
