Suffolk Democratic chairman Richard Schaffer said he backed the pending state bill legalizing the freedom to marry and asked all 250 committee members present to contact their local legislators to support the measure. Referring to Suffolk's lone openly gay county legislator, Schaffer said, "We want to make sure that Jon Cooper does not have to go to Connecticut to get married. He should be allowed to get married right here in New York." Cooper only a week earlier celebrated nuptials in the Nutmeg State with Rob, his partner of 29 years. [link]
