| Description | ACLU, Gay Couples Sue in Oregon; Supreme Court Ruling Expected
The Honolulu Advertiser
The American Civil Liberties Union filed a lawsuit Wednesday that could put the issue of gay marriage on the fast track to the state's Supreme Court. The dispute over same-sex weddings could be heard as early as next month. Several other legal challenges had been brought by conservative leaders and Christian pastors, but gay-marriage opponents and supporters consolidated their lawsuits because they agree the ACLU's suit most directly addresses the constitutional issues arising from gay marriage. |
