A portion of the letter says, “Pursuant to an injunction issued by the United States District Court for the District of Arizona in Connolly v. Brewer, 2: l 4-cv-00024-JWS, I am writing to inform you that Arizona courts can no longer treat marriage exclusively as “a union of one man and one woman” under Article 30 of the Arizona Constitution . The court has determined that both Article 30 and Section 25-101(C) of the Arizona Revised Statutes are invalid under the Equal Protection Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment to the United States Constih1tion to the extent that those laws prohibit or treat as void marriage between persons of the same sex.”
