The U.S. state of Oregon does not recognize same-sex marriage. Since 2004 the Oregon Constitution has stated: "It is the policy of Oregon, and its political subdivisions, that only a marriage between one man and one woman shall be valid or legally recognized as a marriage." However, domestic partnership are allowed since 2008.

Famous quotes containing the words marriage and/or oregon:

    the marriage twists, holds firm, a sailor’s knot.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    In another year I’ll have enough money saved. Then I’m gonna go back to my hometown in Oregon and I’m gonna build a house for my mother and myself. And join the country club and take up golf. And I’ll meet the proper man with the proper position. And I’ll make a proper wife who can run a proper home and raise proper children. And I’ll be happy, because when you’re proper, you’re safe.
    Daniel Taradash (b. 1913)
