D.O.M.A. dead, Gay Marriage legal in the USA
In a ruling by the supreme court, they decided that the Defense of Marriage Act was unconstitutional based on discrimination. Therefore, the government can now only determine a marriage as being a marriage whether or not the couple is straight or gay, all legal distinctions are equal. If a state determines gays can marry, their marriage is legal in those states, but it does not transfer.
