Madigan urges issuing same-sex marriage licenses now | |
March 05, 2014 Illinois Attorney General Lisa Madigan says her office will side with same-sex couples who sue to get marriage licenses before June 1. A federal court decision allowed for same-sex marriages to begin in February in Cook County, ahead of the state law set to take effect June 1. Madigan's decision could lead other counties to begin issuing marriage licenses before that date. Source: http://www.dailyherald.com/article/20140304/news/140309351/ |
