| Message | This seems to be an unnecessary measure. If there is no explicit policy on polygamy, than it is safe to assume that polygamous marriages are treated equally under the law. In any case, it should truly be a matter for state governments to decide. Daunte Woodson Chairman Democratic Capitalist Delegation |
