That URL gave me a floating point error and a general protection fault. If
I can't read about an organization, I'm not inclined to support it.

Please be precise. Does the amendment seek to ban any marriages between
gays (such as marriages of convenience between beards), or to ban marriages
between same-sex partners, even if both are straight? Do we know what the
effect will be on tourism?

Can I read the amendment and the organization's platform? What is expected
of GPVA if we join?
