First and foremost, the Constitution does not delegate marriage issues to the federal government. Their meddling in your marital and other personal status on tax forms ends with a simple 10%-15% FLAT TAX. Done.

Secondly, the people of each state need to decide to leave marriage out of state government's hands. Same issue: flat tax solves state meddling in martial and other personal status.

If it were only an issue about money, then problem solved.

Homosexual marriage isn’t about tax status.

Bingo.
But they will fight against that idea tooth-and-nail because it cuts out a lot of their power (esp. that which can be arbitrarily applied) and forces actual transparency.

Getting rid of the ridiculous complexities of the tax code would solve a lot of problems, including this one.

Evidently the constitution does allow the government to decide on marriage issues for itself, since the Congress was passing laws regarding marriage, from the beginning.
