The Supreme Court will hear four cases (the ACLU represents clients in Kentucky and Ohio) on April 28th and could extend the freedom to marry to all 50 states. This historic opportunity would pave the way for equality for lesbian and gay couples across America by reversing the unfair patchwork of state anti-gay, anti-marriage laws.
It's 2015, and there are 13 states that fail to recognize the freedom to marry for all couples. This not only denies individuals the right to marry the person who they love, but also denies families the crucial legal protections that should be afforded to all married couples.
But the majority of the country has said “I do!” same-sex marriage. It is legalized in 37 states, and 52% of Americans agree that the freedom to marry should be extended to all 50 states.
