LOS ANGELES CITY ATTORNEY ROCKY DELGADILLO STATEMENT ON PROPOSITION 8 HEARING BEFORE THE CALIFORNIA SUPREME COURT
LOS ANGELES – Los Angeles City Attorney Rocky Delgadillo, the city’s chief prosecutor, released the following statement today on the oral arguments before the California Supreme Court on the validity of Proposition 8:
“Equal protection under the law remains a bedrock principle of our constitutional democracy. In this nation, and in this state, we amend our Constitution to extend rights – not take them away. Proposition 8 flies in the face of the principle of equal protection and strips away fundamental rights from millions of Californians.
“I am honored to have filed suit – on behalf of the City – before the California Supreme Court to protect our rights.
“The arguments made today in support of Proposition 8 send the clear signal that the rights of all minority groups could be threatened by a simple majority vote.
“We must not allow that to happen here in California.”
