DOMA Struck Down





It was a historic day yesterday when The Supreme Court struck down DOMA giving LGBT couples full marriage equality in states where same sex marriage is legal. Rachel Maddow had a great piece last night detailing what this means for LGBT couples as well as all Americans. The image that I thought summed up best the excitement and celebration of the day was President Obama, who supports marriage equality, calling from Air Force One and congratulating happy couple, Kris Perry and Sandy Stier. Perry and Stier are two of the plaintiffs, who challenged Proposition 8, which was also struck down by the Supreme Court yesterday.
