U.S. Conference of Mayors Held for Supporting Same-Sex Marriage
U.S. Conference of Mayors had a 4-day conference that ended on Monday. More than 200 mayors participated in this gathering that took place in Dallas. The result of this was U.S. Conference of Mayors urging federal courts up to the U.S. Supreme Court to allow same-sex couples nationwide to marry.
The same conference was held back in 2009, that time too it endorsed the freedom of same-sex couples to marry. The same thing it reaffirmed in this current resolution.
The major noting of the group was that that 19 states and the District of Columbia allow same-sex couples to marry. Also, they condemned any legislation that gave the authorization to discrimination in employment or refusal of service or facilities to gays and lesbians.
