NJ: One Step Closer to Gay Marriage
The highest court in New Jersey ruled today that the state had to provide gay couples with equal rights to marry. The Supreme Court gave the state legislature 180 days to provide the legal protections either in the form of a law creating civil unions or gay marriage.
I know that gay rights activists hoped for more--an unequivocal legalization of gay marriage--and I certainly hope the Democrats in the state legislature will find their conscience and do the right, moral thing and provide gays with the same rights as straights. But this court ruling is a major step forward.
Stumble It!
