Palmer Comments on 11th Circuit Decision to Deny Stay on Gay Marriage Decision

February 3, 2015

For Immediate Release

"I believe marriage is between one man and one woman, as do a large majority of the people of Alabama. The recent court decisions are troubling and disappointing. Unelected judges are achieving a political end that has been rejected by the electorate.

I applaud Attorney General Luther Strange for appealing to the Supreme Court for a stay and hope that a stay is granted pending the resolution of the issue before the Supreme Court."
