Marriage Equality

After a two-and-a-half year struggle in the courts to achieve marriage equality, we are saddened by the Court's plurality decision. We will continue to analyze the opinions and reactions to them by our community and those who oppose our vision of equality and fairness, so please check back with us frequently. And you can be sure we will continue to fight for full equality in marriage and in all aspects of family life. That is our vision, our mission and our commitment.
