July 24 marks the first day that gay and lesbian couples can wed in New York
State, but many political groups and religious institutions are claiming
that the fight regarding opposition to same-sex marriage is far from over,
according to The New York Times.
Influential opponents, such as Brian S. Brown, the president of the National
Organization for Marriage, and Rev. Jason J. McGuire, the executive
director of New Yorkers for Constitutional Freedoms, are currently leading
the fight after an unsuccessful campaign to limit marriage to opposite-sex
couples.
Brown has marked July 24 as the start of a new chapter in a long fight
against marriage equality. “The notion that you pass same-sex marriage and
the issue goes away, that’s one of the biggest lies told by proponents for
redefining marriage,” he said.
Various opposition groups, including the National Organization for Marriage,
have rallies planned in Albany, Buffalo, New York City and Rochester on
this day.
McGuire predicted complications for professionals in the wedding industry
who have objections to working for those in the LGBT community; he had
fought to include protections for private, wedding related businesses,
although the exemptions did not pass.
In addition to many high profile opponents, a handful of government workers
have expressed their disdain over the new law. Various individuals,
including municipal clerks, are set to resign before gay marriage becomes
legal in the Empire State.
Laura L. Fotusky, a town clerk in near Binghamton, will resign on July 21;
three days before same-sex marriage becomes legal. Fotusky said that she
could not be in good conscience by issuing marriage licenses to homosexuals.
In her resignation letter to the Town Board of Barker, N.Y., she wrote, “I
believe that there is a higher law than the law of the land. It is the law
of God in the Bible.” | g********d 发帖数: 4174 | 2 How is it not over? It is over!!!!!!!! | m******1 发帖数: 19713 | 3 In her resignation letter to the Town Board of Barker, N.Y., she wrote, “I
