Rhode Island Catholic Church Defeated on Gay Marriage
Openly gay state representative Frank Ferri led Rhode Island to legalize same sex marriage, marking a major political defeat for the Catholic Church in a state with a strong Catholic presence. The Legislature, led by an openly gay speaker, passed the measure, widening a national divide as polls show Catholics leaning toward conscience over church teaching on social issues.
