Attorneys general urge Supreme Court to weigh in on marriage equality

Thirty-two state attorneys general filed two amicus briefs with the Supreme Court last Friday, urging the justices to settle the question of whether same-sex couples have a constitutional right to marry. The officials asked the court to review three cases out of Oklahoma, Virginia and Utah

"The time has come to end the exclusion of same-sex couples from the institution of marriage," the officials wrote in one of the briefs.
