While every faith tradition has the right to define its own doctrines concerning 17 religious rites of marriage, none should be able to impose those doctrines on others by law. 18 No party's counsel authored any part of the proposed brief. No one other than amici and 19 their counsel contributed money to fund the preparation or submission of the brief. 20 MEMORANDUM OF POINTS AND AUTHORITIES 21 I. 22 A. 23 The identities of proposed amici curiae, are as follows: 24 1. 25 CA) is a statewide justice ministry that cultivates and connects leaders and communities to empower 26 the public voice of those who share Unitarian Universalist values and Principles upholding the 27 worth and dignity of every person, furthering justice, equity, and compassion, promoting democracy 28

Church 4 IMPACT also posted a ballot recommendation to its website urging a "No" vote on Proposition 8, 5 explaining that notwithstanding the "liturgical issues around same-sex marriage, we can be united in 6 supporting civil marriage as a secular right. No church would be forced to conduct a wedding that is 7 contrary to its beliefs, but no church or individual should be barred from the right to marry if they 8 choose to do so."1 Public records show that Church IMPACT's total revenues for the calendar year 9 2008 were $50,501, and that its net assets came to $4,450.

1 resolutions. In 1996 the CCAR endorsed civil marriage for gay people and in 2000 it recognized the 2 right of Reform rabbis to perform religious marriage ceremonies for gay and lesbian Jews. 3 II. 4 ARGUMENT Amici respectfully request leave to file the accompanying amicus curiae brief, which
5 addresses issues raised by the arguments and evidence presented at trial in this case. 6 The Unitarian Universalist Legislative Ministry California (UULM CA); California Faith for
7 Equality, Progressive Jewish Alliance, and California Council of Churches are faith-based 8 organizations that support, and have organized on behalf of, religious freedom and access to civil 9 marriage for same-sex couples. The Northern California Nevada Conference and Southern 10 California Nevada Conference of the United Church of Christ; General Synod of the United Church 11 of Christ; and Universal Fellowship of Metropolitan Community Churches and Unitarian 12 Universalist Association represent faith traditions whose clergy were solemnizing legal marriages for 13 same-sex couples in their California congregations until Proposition 8 passed. The California 14 Council of Churches' membership comprises more than 4,000 of California's Christian 15 congregations from 21 denominations, including both mainstream and progressive Protestant and 16 Orthodox Christian communities, two of which recognize same-sex marriage in their religious rites. 17 The Pacific Association of Reform Rabbis includes rabbis who solemnized legal marriages for same18 sex couples prior to the passing of Proposition 8. The Unitarian Universalist Legislative Ministry 19 Action Network, CA PAC and California Council of Churches Church IMPACT engaged in political 20 lobbying and together spent under $63,000 opposing Proposition 8. 21 Amici are united in believing that Proposition 8 impermissibly seeks to impose anti-
22 homosexual attitudes and doctrines of certain sects. They believe the accompanying brief may be 23 useful to the Court both in evaluating the testimony of Proponents' expert witness, Professor 24 Kenneth P. Miller, in considering the status and relative power in our society of gay and lesbian 25 citizens, and in weighing the religious-liberty interests at stake. 26 27 28
