Marriage and Family. We recognize that the family is the fundamental unit of every human society. This natural social arrangement both precedes the state and has rights and responsibilities independent of it. We respect the central role of marriage in fostering lasting family ties and strong communities, and believe that the effectiveness of marriage in ensuring the well-being of the next generation depends on the norms of monogamy, sexual exclusivity, and permanence. We, therefore, support:
Measures that promote stable and healthy marriages and aid families in the raising of children.
Strong measures to prevent and prosecute domestic violence, one of the most serious threats to marriage.
Laws that protect religious institutions, small businesses, and private individuals from civil or criminal liability for refusing to participate in activities contrary to their belief in marriage as a secure union of one man and one woman.
Workplace accommodations for parents, including paid parental leave, flexible scheduling, and affordable childcare.
Tax reform measures that incentivize marriage and raising children.
Removal of any marriage penalties in the tax code and public welfare programs.
