Rep. Trent Franks, R-Ariz.
Representative Trent Franks (R-Ariz.) is calling for the impeachment of President Barack Obama for his refusal to mount a legal defense to the current suit challenging the 1996 Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA), in the wake of Attorney General Eric Holder's announcement that the Justice Department would no longer defend DOMA in federal court.

Ron Paul, CPAC 2011 Straw Poll Winner (http://www.thenewamerican.com/index.php/usnews/politics/6299-ron-paul-wins-cpac-presidential-straw-vote)
In 2004, Ron Paul spoke in support of the Defense of Marriage Act (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Defense_of_Marriage_Act), passed in 1996. This act allows a state to decline to recognize same-sex marriages performed in other states or countries, although a state will usually recognize legal marriages performed outside of its own jurisdiction. The Defense of Marriage Act also prohibits the U.S. government from recognizing same-sex marriages, even if a state recognizes the marriage. Paul co-sponsored the Marriage Protection Act (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marriage_Protection_Act), which would have barred federal judges from hearing cases pertaining to the constitutionality of the Defense of Marriage Act.
