Facts
Assessment
Reliability Tier
1
The Reconstructionist movement's own rabbinical association, resolving on its own members' practice in its own name. Its own resolution text was not independently reachable; corroborated against the Human Rights Campaign's and Pew Research Center's independent surveys of denominational positions before citing, both of which report the same 2004 resolution and the same civil-marriage-rights language.
Notes
A 2004 resolution of the Reconstructionist Rabbinical Association endorsing and supporting the right of same-sex couples to share fully and equally in the rights, responsibilities and commitments of civil marriage. This resolution addresses civil marriage rights specifically; no separately dated Reconstructionist statement on rabbinic ritual officiation of same-sex ceremonies has been found.
