President Obama has instructed the Justice Department to "stop defending the Defense of Marriage Act", the act that bars recognition of same-sex marriages, in the court system. They are considering it discriminatory and unconstitutional.
It is a huge step towards equality under the law. Obama currently supports civil unions but says that his views are evolving.
Exciting!
