    Same-sex marriage now legal in Colorado

    Colorado's Republican Attorney General John Suthers yesterday filed a lawsuit in Federal court to have Colorado's same-sex marriage ban struck down immediately after the Supreme Court's refusal to hear the gay marriage cases in 5 states.

    Today, the Colorado Supreme Court ordered all 64 counties in Colorado to begin issuing marriage licenses to gay couples, declaring that based on the Circuit Court ruling, gay marriage is now legal in the Centennial State. Effective at 8:00 AM Mountain Time today, when most county clerks opened, gay marriage became legal, meaning that now half of all US states now issue marriage licenses to same-sex couples, and more than half will be issuing in January once the temporary stay in Florida expires on January 5, 2015, and 26 states now recognize gay marriages, as Missouri began recognizing out-of-state marriages.
