Unanimous Iowa Supreme Court Decision on Gay Marriage

By on 03 April 2009

Consider this the believe it or not edition of civil rights. Iowa’s Supreme Court says same-sex marriage ban is unconstitutional.

BREAKING NEWS… The Iowa Supreme Court says the state’s same-sex marriage ban violates the constitutional rights of gay and lesbian couples, making it the third state where gay marriage is legal.

In a unanimous ruling issued Friday, the court upheld a 2007 Polk County District Court judge’s ruling that the law violated the state constitution.

    Iowa also shocked the country when it gave Obama the headstart to the Presidency. They are pretty hip in the cornhusker state.

    I do. If you watch the YouTube, Pete Williams had to (metaphorically speaking) pick up his jaw.

    Iowa sometimes seems an island of rational thought in the midwest.
