Florida's amendment will take benefits away from unmarried citizens. Children with gay or lesbian parents will suffer.

The following video shows what can happen when constitutional amendments are passed. Tom and Dennis Patrick lost their joint health benefits when Michigan passed an amendment to "protect" families. The Patrick family lost their shared health insurance after Michigan's attorney general ruled that state employees could no longer share benefits. The new policy became effective almost immediately after the Michigan amendment was passed - and now the couple's three sons are in jeopardy of losing their health insurance.

Florida voters will vote on Amendment #2 this year, which would take away the ability to visit loved ones in the hospital, require government to take a large role in all our lives, and eliminate insurance benefits for non-married couples [as in the case of the Michigan fathers shown in the video].
