“Change the culture, not the law”

Can you cite the “law” Cruz is trying to change here?

He’s trying to restrict the ability of oligarchical Federal judges to change state law.

Introducing a new statute (the State Marriage Defense Act)
is changing the law, in the abstract. I’ll admit it isn’t quite the same thing as amending an existing statute.

But my point stands - what would stop the courts from declaring this one unconstitutional also??
