Today marks a new chapter in the history of our country. Today, the SCOTUS ruled that Gays and lesbians have equal protection under the law. The impact was immediate.


My partner Alex and I started crying. Marriage, which for us in Arizona has always been an abstract concept, suddenly looks obtainable.

My good friend Michael, and his partner Matt, no longer are being forced to move to another country to stay together. Now, they can CHOOSE to stay in the United States.

My good friends Jen and Peggy, upon hearing the news about DOMA and Prop 8, decided to get married in New York in a few weeks. They live in CA, and Jen is from NY.

Thousands and thousands of more stories like these are out there. Truly, a momentous day in this country.
