摘要
This article serves as an informational and resource tool on the policy topic of same-sex marriage. The authors begin by distinguishing between benefit levels of marriage, civil unions, and domestic partnerships. Chronological and global overviews of same-sex marriage history along with a review of applicable U.S. Constitution amendments that apply to marriage recognition are included. The social, political, and economic impacts of same-sex marriage exclusion are discussed relative to advancing justice for these individuals and families. The authors conclude with advocacy strategies relative to advancing the rights of same-sex families to access federal marriage.
