http://usnews.msnbc.msn.com/_news/2012/05/31/11990019-appeals-court-denying-federal-benefits-to-same-sex-couples-is-unconstitutional?liteA federal appeals court has ruled that the Defense of Marriage Act, a law that denies a host of federal benefits to same-sex married couples, is unconstitutional.
The 1st U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Boston ruled Thursday that the act known as DoMA, which defines marriage as a union between a man and a woman, discriminates against gay couples.
