Marriage Equality In Washington DC

The holiday season has me so distracted that this bit of good news passed right by me. Yesterday, the D.C. Council approved a same-sex marriage bill with a vote 11-2. Washington, D.C. has now become the sixth US location with marriage equality, joining Massachusetts, Connecticut, Vermont, Iowa and New Hampshire.

Same-sex couples in the District will be able to marry as soon as this spring, pending that opponents of marriage equality fail in their efforts to block the legislation. All we can do is keep our fingers crossed, because either way this is a victory for our team!
