How would states be any less weak than corporate America?

How many states (especially "red" states) passed laws defending traditional marriage?

38, I think. Mostly In the middle of the last decade. But the problem is that not one would would pass its amendment by more than what it originally passed it by. If you look at the votes of the popular ballots, I don’t think there would be a state in the union that couldn’t just repeal any marriage amendment by popular vote within 20 years, at least if the trend continues. The ones that only passed their amendments in the 50% ranges 10 years ago probably couldn’t pass them again right now.
