On Wednesday, George Clooney released a statement giving his thoughts onthe California Supreme Court’s decision to uphold a ban prohibiting same-sex couples from marrying in the state of California.

“This just should invigorate people to get it back on the ballot in 2010 and 2012 and every two years until all people are allowed a basic civil right,” George said.

On Tuesday, California’s Supreme Court ruled to acknowledge same-sex marriages officiated in the state prior to Prop 8, but also ruled to uphold the proposition ballot that says “only marriage between a man and a woman is valid or recognized in California.”
