Lambda Legal today issued a legal analysis documenting the ability of Bisbee and other Arizona municipalities to enact ordinances recognizing and protecting the committed family relationships of adult couples regardless of marital status, gender or sexual orientation.
Lambda Legal joined the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU), the National Center for Lesbian Rights (NCLR) and the Transgender Law Center in issuing the following statement.
Marriage is common social currency. It is a way of expressing the most central loving partnership. It is imbued with dignity and respect. It is easily understood. As children, my clients imagined being married. And now their children want to see their parents married.
