Gay Marriage Resumes in California on August 18th!!
Chief U.S. District Judge Vaughn Walker ruled that gay marriages
will resume while his landmark decision in the case makes its way
to an appeals court starting on August 18th.
GLAAD President Jarrett Barrios stated,
"Lifting the stay does one thing: it provides gay & lesbian couples

across California the protections they need to take care of each

other. Once Americans see these couples marry, understand the

barriers they faced & the protections they deserve, our country

will move closer to full equality.” Updates to Come…:)

On Tuesday Mexico's Supreme Court ruled that all 31 states
must recognize same-gender marriages performed in its capital,

Mexico City. The decision does not mean those states begin

marrying gay couples in their territory. In a 9-2 decision, the

tribunal cited an article of the constitution requiring states to

recognize legal contracts drawn up elsewhere.

Mexico City's same-gender marriage law began in March & extends

to wedded gay couples the right to adopt children, to jointly apply

for bank loans, to inherit wealth & to be covered by their spouses'

insurance policies. America has a lot of catching-up to do….
