GOV. ANDREW CUOMO VOWS TO PUSH MARRIAGE EQUALITY IN NEW YORK STATE

Newly elected governor, and personal hero, Andrew Cuomo has promised to get a vote on marriage equality this session in New York. "We’ll be working very hard to pass it,” said Cuomo during an appearance of Hofstra University, according to the New York Times. My vote was squarely for Cuomo at election time as he has always stated that LGBT issues were a high priority for him. Though Dean G. Skelos, the Senate's Republican majority leader, remains opposed to gay marriage in NYS, one of his aides said he will not stop a vote. Oh, how nice of him. Blech! I guess we are getting closer and closer to becoming a free world after all! Yay, Cuomo!!!
