New York is expected, by many, to become the next state to legalize same-sex marriage.
As of Tuesday evening, a bill to recognize unions between same-sex couples was one vote away from being passed in the state senate. Putting the Empire State on the verge of being the 6th state in the nation, along with Washington, D.C., to recognize such unions.
The bill was introduced earlier the same day by Governor Andrew Cuomo, who campaigned on a platform of civil rights for gay and lesbian New Yorkers.
‘For too long, same-sex couples have been denied the freedom to marry, as well as hundreds of rights that other New Yorkers take for granted,’ Cuomo said.”
