City lawmakers raised their voices in support of marriage equality, joining hundreds of New Yorkers yesterday in a march across the Brooklyn Bridge to boost awareness about the issue. The marchers wore stickers bearing an equal sign, and the crowd cheered as lawmakers talked up the prospect of the freedom to marry in New York State. Speakers at the event included Comptroller William Thompson Jr., Manhattan's president, Scott Stringer, and City Council speaker Christine Quinn. [Link]
