New York State Approves Gay Marriage

By . Posted on .

gay marriage passes new york state
This historic moment for same-sex marriage can only mean one thing: party.

New York State has officially passed a same-sex marriage bill, 33 to 29, becoming the sixth and largest state to make gay marriage legal in the United States. This vote is particularly historic as Republicans have a majority in the NY state legislature, making it the first GOP-led body to pass a same-sex marriage amendment. I would write more, but I need to start picking out what I am going to wear to all the kick ass gay weddings I'm going to attend in the next year. Congratulations to the LGBTQ community in NY—it's about f**king time.
