In a ruling today held by the Supreme Court, the state ban on gay marriage was found unconstitutional by a voting of 5-4. All same-sex couple are now free to marry anywhere in the country.

Justice Anthony Kennedy wrote in the majority opinion, “The court now holds that same-sex couples may exercise the fundamental right to marry. No longer may this liberty be denied to them”

This is a momentous occasion for gay and lesbian couples in the states.

Happy, happy pride!
