Supreme Court to Hear Gay Marriage and DOMA Challenges
The Supreme Court agreed to hear two cases on same sex marriage and the Defense of Marriage Act. It will decide whether gay Americans have the same constitutional right to marry as heterosexuals and whether federal benefits can be denied to those who marry legally. The actions come as public opinion shifts and after bans remain in 30 states plus Hawaii. The Windsor case challenges DOMA's federal estate tax implications, while Hollingsworth v Perry pertains to California's Proposition 8.

Shadowy donor behind record super PAC funds traced to Rose
Tennessee lawyer William Rose steered at least 12 million through shell entities to FreedomWorks for America. The funds backed high profile races including Connie Mack in Florida and Tammy Duckworth in Illinois, amid questions about origin and transparency. Rose renamed Specialty Group Inc and Kingston Pike Development Corp to channel the donations, with no clear business description or address. FreedomWorks and Armey deny knowledge of donors while courts weigh super PAC disclosure.
