The silver lining to the New York State high court’s poorly argued ruling in favor of marriage discrimination is, well, that it’s poorly argued. If we make our case for equality directly to our fellow Americans, we’ll win.
"A marriage victory would have been wonderfully sweet, but we should
focus now on the unique opportunity in New York to use the momentum
that has built over the past years to push for a victory in the
legislature. It is well within our reach. We can and will win
marriage equality through our democratically elected legislators. We
have come far along the road to full citizenship in this state.
