GLAD Celebrates CT Marriage Equality, Surveys Couples On DOMA’s Impact

GLAD, which won marriage equality in Connecticut in the court case Kerrigan & Mock v. Department of Public Health, is marking the first anniversary with a little celebration and a little investigation.

GLAD and Love Makes a Family will join married couples, including many of the lawsuit’s plaintiffs, at the State House for an anniversary photo at 3:30, followed by cake, champagne, and a toast in the Old Judiciary Room.

In addition to joining the festivities in Hartford at the State House, GLAD is rolling out a survey of Connecticut’s married same-sex couples to find out how they are affected by the federal Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA).
