State Supreme Court Upholds Ban on Gay Marriage
The Washington State Supreme Court upheld the ban on same-sex marriage on Wednesday, July 26. The case was in response to the 1998 Defense of Marriage Act, which limits marriage to heterosexual couples. In 2004, it was ruled unconstitutional by judges in King and Thurston counties.
