Breaking News: supreme-court-to-take-up-prop-8-doma case# LES - 同女之舞

The Supreme Court announced today that it will consider the
constitutionality of the federal Defense of Marriage Act and California's
ban on marriage, two cases that could have a significant impact on marriage
laws across the country.
The Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA), passed by Congress and signed by
President Clinton in 1996, prohibits federal recognition of same-sex
marriages. Both the first and second circuit court of appeals have struck
down a provision of the law denying federal benefits, like Social Security
benefits or the ability to file joint tax returns, to same-sex couples
legally married. Because of these lower court rulings, DOMA has been
declared unconstitutional in some regions of the country but not others --
an issue the Supreme Court should rectify.

八字才半撇。
3月底,双方律师答辩。6月28号最高法院出结果。
我觉的这次不过也没关系的。 越来越多人可以结婚了。 越来越多人会去告政府违宪的
。 SOONER OR LATER, DOMA WILL BE OVERTURN

"When U.S. District Court Judge Barbara Jones ruled in Windsor's favor last
month, Windsor said she walked around, looking at all the photographs of
Spyer displayed on the walls of her New York home.
Windsor said she was thrilled about how wide-reaching the implications of
her case could be for other same-sex couples. But her first reaction was, "I
need to tell Thea immediately," she recalled. "So I walked around, looking
at the pictures and I said, 'Oh honey, look what's happening.'"
