Same-Sex Marriage Ruling Spurs Kansas Statehouse Rally
LGBT rights supporters celebrate the Supreme Court ruling legalizing same sex marriage nationwide at the Kansas Statehouse. Activists like Equality Kansas’ Thomas Witt and ACLU Kansas’ Micah Kubic pledge continued fights for nondiscrimination protections and LGBT equality amid political opposition from Governor Brownback and lawmakers. A second rally formed outside the building as about 100 people sang and voiced objections to state leadership, stressing the ongoing risks for LGBT Kansans.
