"On Wednesday, March 1, 2006, at a hearing on the proposed
Constitutional Amendment to prohibit gay marriage, Jamie Raskin, professor
of law at AU, was requested to testify.

At the end of his testimony, Republican Senator Nancy Jacobs said:
"Mr. Raskin, my Bible says marriage is only between a man and a woman.
What do you have to say about that?"

Raskin replied: "Senator, when you took your oath of office, you
placed your hand on the Bible and swore to uphold the Constitution. You did
not place your hand on the Constitution and swear to uphold the
Bible."

The room erupted into applause."
