13 of the top 15 newspapers have editorialized their support of the freedom to marry.

President Clinton has weighed in on DOMA and the federal recognition of marriage for gay and lesbian Americans in a powerful Washington Post editorial.

In this week's episode of Marriage News Watch: An exciting start to the year, with a win and a setback in Illinois. Two brand new marriage bills are on the fast track in Rhode Island. And a Congressional bill to repeal DOMA picks up support.

Outgoing Rep. Charlie Bass (R-New Hampshire) became the third Republican congressman to support legislation that would repeal the so-called Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA).

It’s official: The Supreme Court will hear AFER’ Prop. 8 case and a constitutional challenge to the DOMA brought by the ACLU. Meanwhile, support’s growing in Congress for a repealing the Defense of Marriage Act.

Here are a few highlights from Friday's announcement that the U.S. Supreme Court will hear AFER’s case challenging Proposition 8 and the ACLU’s case challenging the so-called Defense of Marriage Act.

The moment we have been fighting for has finally arrived. The U.S. Supreme Court just announced that they will hear our federal constitutional challenge to California’s Proposition 8.

Another ruling against the Defense of Marriage Act. A former Prop. 8 supporter releases a new video explaining his change of heart. And polling on marriage in key states remains very close just days out from the election.

For the second time, a federal appeals court has ruled that the so-called Defense of Marriage Act is unconstitutional, saying that the law unfairly treats married gay and lesbian couples differently.
