NY Senate Debates Marriage Equality

Watch it live streaming right now or don’t. Equal marriage has been a hot topic of late, obviously. You’d have to be living under a rock to have avoided hearing about it. The United States is, unfortunately, a model for civil liberties worldwide, and I think it’s sick and sad that equal marriage is still such an issue of contention.

Massachusetts, Iowa, Connecticut, Vermont and New Hampshire are currently the only states that allow same-sex marriages in the USA. In New York (as well as in Washington, D.C.), same-sex marriage certificates from elsewhere are recognized, but aren’t currently performed.
