01 Proposing an amendment to the section of the Constitution of the State of Alaska                                        
02 relating to marriage.                                                                                                   
03 BE IT RESOLVED BY THE LEGISLATURE OF THE STATE OF ALASKA:                                                               
04    * Section 1. Article I, sec. 25, Constitution of the State of Alaska, is amended to read:                          
05            Section 25. Marriage and related limitations. To be valid or recognized in

09       conferred on a union other than the union of a man and woman.                                                 
10    * Sec. 2. The amendment proposed by this resolution shall be placed before the voters of the

12 of Alaska, and the election laws of the state.
