Next Gay Marriage Battle Likely To Be in Oregon
Everybody should have a chance to get hitched (and then un-hitched)
PORTLAND, Ore. — Three states made history Tuesday (Nov. 6) voting to approve same-sex marriage, and a fourth repudiated an attempt to ban it.
Oregon, once known as a trailblazer for progressive causes, wasn't among them. But that could change in 2014.
Local gay rights activists stand by a decision they made a year ago not to pursue a marriage ballot measure this year because the timing wasn't right.
