Marriage Amendment On Trial - Wisconsin Public Television

[we have received the following press release...]

Marriage Amendment on Trial is a special Wisconsin Public Television production that examines a proposed constitutional amendment on the ballot this fall.

The amendment would define marriage as "between one man and one woman" and would prohibit any "substantially similar" status for unmarried couples. In the program, to air later this month, the amendment itself was put "on trial."

Lawyer Michele LaVigne, professor at UW-Madison, argued against the amendment and Rick Esenberg, professor at Marquette University, argued for it.

Esenberg and LaVigne will appear on "Here and Now" this week to offer a preview of that show. Marriage Amendment on Trial will air Wednesday, Oct. 25 at 8 p.m.

Tune in to hear the "verdict" on this controversial amendment.
