David A. Catania said he will make his break from the Republican Party official today, ending months of public disagreement with national party leaders over their support for an amendment to the U.S. Constitution that would ban same-sex marriage.

Catania, 36, who joined the Republican Party when he was 16, said in an interview yesterday that he will change his registration to independent in city voting records. For the past seven years, he has been an at-large member on the D.C. Council, and his change in party affiliation will leave only one Republican on the 13-member body.
