Gay Marriages In California WILL Begin June 17!

The California Supreme Court has voted 4-3 to refuse to delay implementation of its ruling that same-sex couples have equal access to marriage in California.

"It would have been unprecedented to postpone constitutional rights based on speculation of how a political scenario may or may not play out," San Francisco city attorney Dennis Herrera said.

"Folks can get married on June 17," he said.

The court's original ruling becomes final at 5 p.m. on June 16, opening the way for gay marriages to start the next day.

Massachusetts is the only U.S. state that allows same-sex marriage, but offers licenses only to its own residents. California has no residency requirement, which means gays from across the United States will be able to go there to marry.
