Task Force on Marriage
Composed of marriage leaders and accountable to the marriage movement
as a whole, as represented by the signatories to What Next for the
Marriage Movement?, the Task Force on Marriage was created on December
16, 2004 to assist and guide the marriage movement in achieving its shared
goals.

1. To develop model legislation, direct movement-wide legislative agenda,
and monitor progress toward achieving our legislative goals;

programs and initiatives.
