From a recent action alert by the Pennsylvania Family Institute:
Attorneys for a lesbian woman who was “married” to her partner in Canada have petitioned the court to declare Pennsylvania’s marriage law to be unconstitutional. That means a single judge could, by his decision, rewrite the definition of marriage in the state to allow same-sex marriage. It was a case not unlike this one that led the high court in Iowa to legalize same-sex marriage there in 2009.
The only way to protect marriage for generations to come in Pennsylvania is a Marriage Protection Amendment...
... For the past five years, the state has considered legislation giving you the chance to vote on a marriage protection amendment, but each year the legislation has been prevented from moving forward. With this past year’s election, however, conservatives won a majority in both the state House and Senate, paving the way for the passage of marriage protection legislation in 2011.

Hopefully this court case will be enough to kick the PA legislature into gear. The time is now.
Indeed.
If you observe carefully this PA couple is attempting to do in PA what was done in MA and CT.
