New York City, April 3, 2009


EMPIRE STATE (NEW YORK STATE) PRIDE AGENDA released the following in an email today:

This morning we learned that Iowa's Supreme Court unanimously decided to strike down the state's ban on same-sex marriage. This is an exciting day for our community and a major step forward in the national (USA) movement towards marriage equality.

Lambda Legal and One Iowa have worked tirelessly in the Hawkeye State over the past several years leading up to this decision. We congratulate them on this huge victory and thank them for their commitment to winning equality and working towards justice for LGBT people in Iowa.
