CALIFORNIA SSM BILL ANNOUNCED: From 365Gay.com

A California assembly member Monday announced legislation to allow same-sex couples to obtain marriage licenses.

"The time has come for California to honor its commitment to equality for all Californians," stated Assembly Member Mark Leno (D-San
Francisco), the author of the legislation. "My bill will affirm the civil rights of gay, lesbian, bisexual, and transgender adults who wish to take on the responsibility of marriage and
ensure that children being raised by these couples receive the same protections as children raised by married couples. For too long, the right to marry has been denied to thousands of Californians based on their
gender and sexual orientation, resulting in harm to them and their children."
