The Aftermath of Prop. 22 During the campaign for California’s Proposition 22, a Church spokesman stated members were not required to support the effort and no one would be disciplined over the issue. After my family publicly opposed the proposition, however, I was threatened with excommunication and was made to feel an outcast. Still, many members expressed support or respect. How have these events influenced the way I live, rear my children, and understand the Church and religion?
