WASHINGTON, July 14 /U.S. Newswire/ -- The House Judiciary Committee today approved by a 21-to-13 margin legislation that would ensure States continue to decide state marriage policy. H.R. 3313, introduced by Rep. John Hostettler (R-Ind.) and amended today by the Committee, removes the federal courts' jurisdiction to hear cases involving the provision in the 1996 Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA) that allows States to decide whether to legally recognize out-of- state same-sex marriage licenses.
Article III, Section 2, clause 2 of the Constitution provides that the lower federal courts are entirely creatures of Congress, as is the appellate jurisdiction of the U.S. Supreme Court, excluding its very limited original jurisdiction.
