Fucking pieces of utter dogshit. Married ladies, get rid of your husbands surnames. Now. You’re in danger.

I still don't understand how they think this will work. A marriage license is a legal document that proves your name has been changed.
Unless they plan to delegitimize marriage licenses?
I had to show a copy so I could change the name on my social security card, and so I could get my passport.
I have no doubt Republicans would try this, I just don't understand how they intend to void the legality of a marriage license.
@Tarnagh @Siren_six It's possible they just didn't think it through, because they are dumb.
But let's assume they have nefarious intent.
In such a case, some people have suggested, perhaps the plan is to let people get married, then if their name is changed (usually women, but sometimes men, too), they can't vote any more. Tra la! A bunch of women and hyphenated-name-type-sissy-men can't vote no more! Tee hee!
I mean, Republicans _are_ as stupid as they are evil, so who the heck knows?
@AskTheDevil They’ve also been quite vocal about wanting to take women’s voting rights away. You know that one vote per household vote is the man’s vote sad not the woman’s. @Tarnagh
@Siren_six @Tarnagh Of course. And of course, the more babies the guy forces on her, the more votes he gets.
