Proposition 3, titled Constitutional Right to Marry, was a California ballot proposition and legislative statutes that passed by vote on in the 2024 general election on November 5, 2024.[3][4] The proposition repealed Proposition 8 passed during the 2008 general election and amend the state constitution to declare that the "right to marry is a fundamental right". It also ensured that same-sex couples would have the right to marry in California in case the United States Supreme Court ever withdraws that federal right.[5][6]
