Excited about this
New York Assembly approves same-sex marriage: New York's state Assembly Wednesday night approved a same-sex marriage bill, sending it to the Senate, where it faces a closer vote.
The Marriage Equality Act passed the Assembly 80-63.
It would grant same-sex couples equal rights to marry "as well as hundreds of rights, benefits and protections that are currently limited to married couples of the opposite sex," according to Gov. Andrew Cuomo's office.
Though this is the fourth time it's been approved by the Assembly. Let's hope it passes in the Senate this time.
