Same Sex Marriage


Three States Approve Legalization 

If you scroll down to about the middle of this article, it talks about how three new states approve gay marriage. The residents in Maryland, Maine, and Washington approved same sex marriage and this was a huge turning point for the gay community. In Minnesota, voters also voted against the proposal to keep the State Constitution of marriage between a man and a woman. This type of Constitution is still withheld in 30 states. Gay marriage is now legal in nine states and in the District of Columbia. This type of improvement for the gay community is a huge step that is leading towards more rights for them. Same sex marriage is still very unpopular in the South but gay rights groups are hoping to see changes in Delaware, Hawaii, Illinois, Rhode Island, Minnesota, and New Jersey. These steps are huge improvements for the gay community and they hope to see what the future holds.
