California Ends Gay Couples’ Exclusion From Marriage
May 15, 2008
Earlier today, the California Supreme Court handed down a historic decision upholding the freedom to marry in In Re: Marriage Cases. California's high court is the second state high court to rule in favor of ending the exclusion of same-sex couples from marriage. (Massachusetts ruled over 4 years ago.)With this ruling, our country has the opportunity to continue seeing how families are helped and no one is hurt by ending exclusion from marriage, just as other countries around the world have done.
