On Tuesday night, Illinois's house approved same-sex marriage. It becomes just the 15th state to recognize marriages between same sex couples. Within the past month, 3 states have legalized same sex marriage which just goes to show how fast this movement is progressing. I can't understand how in 2013 that this is even in the news and it's still a state by state case. Of course I'm happy that more states are legalizing it, but it shouldn't have been something that was illegal in the first place. I think that there should be a law that universally "legalizes" same sex marriage. It's unconstitutional for marriage to be denied to two people just because of their sex, and the Supreme Court even said that. So, for states to still deny rights to a minority after the Supreme Court declared it unconstitutional, is very wrong and very un American.
