GOP Asks SCOTUS to Consider Appeal of DOMA Ruling

Via Joe My God

The Bipartisan Legal Advisory Group (BLAG) has asked the Supreme Court to hear an appeal of a Ruling that finds section 3 of the Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA) unconstitutional.  This is the first of several decisions by federal courts to be sent to the Supreme Court.  If the court accepts the case, they could hear arguments this coming October.

DOMA denies any federal recognition of same sex, married couples.  This equates to more than 1500 rights and privileges.
