What now for same-sex marriages?

September 19, 2007

Now that Maryland’s highest court has upheld a state law defining marriage as a union between a man and a woman, where should we go from here?

Should the legislature act, and if so, how?

Should we have civil unions in Maryland for same-sex partners? Should there be a constitutional amendment banning gay marriage?

Should we do anything at all?

Join the debate and let us hear from you.
