The policy has sustained a handful of challenges, yet its resiliency over the decades remains remarkable and instructive. The amendment has passed every Congress with bipartisan votes, annually, for 44 years.

Every person is made in the image of God and the United States has a responsibility to reflect that truth in its laws.
