Jackie Goldberg, a former California Assembly member writes, "The California Supreme Court got it right the first time: Words do matter, and the institution of marriage does as well.

News Highlights from Freedom to Marry
Freedom to Marry
Freedom to Marry is the gay and non-gay partnership working to win marriage equality nationwide.
We encourage dialogue with Americans thinking through the need to end discrimination in marriage, provide support to targeted state and local efforts, and promote fairness for all families, including same-sex couples and the children raised by gay parents. By working to secure equal access to marriage, we help reinforce our country's historic commitment to freedom, the pursuit of happiness, and equal justice for all.
