I tried to find out why Planned Parenthood opposed it and the original article is terrible: https://www.sfchronicle.com/bayarea/article/Effort-to-bar-juvenile-marriages-in-California-11268497.php https://www.sfchronicle.com/bayarea/article/Effort-to-bar-ju... No specific mention of why. I couldn't find a statement from Planned Parenthood in my limited search. I found a publication "Child Marriage in the United States" by Lauren Fox" (https://scholarship.shu.edu/student_scholarship/966/ https://scholarship.shu.edu/student_scholarship/966/) that says this: > Planned Parenthood opposes banning child marriage because it believes that an age requirement would be a burden on a minor’s right to consent in other circumstances (particularly to consent to an abortion). Seems plausible, but the article it references seems to make no specific reference to planned Parenthood: http://www.sacbee.com/news/politics-government/capitol-alert/article149610849.html http://www.sacbee.com/news/politics-government/capitol-alert...
