U.S.

What Feinstein, Pelosi, the SF Archdiocese said about Supreme Court and gay marriage

Immediate reactions captured on social media.

  1. Senator Dianne Feinstein

    Good news: the Supreme Court will hear two important same-sex marriage cases concerning the Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA) and California’s Proposition 8. I am the author of the Senate bill to REPEAL the discriminatory DOMA.

    I’m confident Supreme Court will discard DOMA and Prop 8 into the dustbin of history. Let’s get this over with and on to the future!

    SCOTUS to rule on #DOMA and Prop 8. Here's hoping they confirm that #gaymarriage is a constitutional right. Long overdue! #equality

    I am hopeful today's decision by the U.S. Supreme Court to take up marriage equality will move us one step closer to a nation that stands for equality—equality for all!

    For justice to prevail, #Prop8 must be invalidated so that gay & lesbian families are finally treated with equality & dignity.

    The Supreme Court not only takes a gay-marriage case; it takes the California case, the one with the biggest potential for a broad ruling.
