More Gay Marriage
Posted by fredtopeka on October 10, 2008
I don’t want to go into the weekend with such a downer of a post, so here’s some good news: Connecticut will now allow gay marriages:
“In accordance with these state constitutional requirements, same sex couples cannot be denied the freedom to marry,” said the majority opinion, which was written by Justice Richard N. Palmer.
State Senator Andrew J. McDonald, cochairman of the state Assembly’s Judiciary Committee, said he believes that gay couples will be allowed to marry in 20 days, barring attempts by opponents to delay the ruling with procedural maneuvers. He said he expects the Assembly to update the state’s marriage laws when members reconvene in January, without much opposition.
Welcome to the club CT.
