County Commissioners in the following counties have passed Resolutions calling for the General Assembly to approve legislation submitting a proposal to the qualified voters of the State for adoption of an Amendment to the North Carolina Constitution stating:  "Marriage between a man and a woman is the only domestic legal union that shall be valid or enforceable in this State."
