Arizona lawyer continues work for gay marriage
Phoenix attorney Michael S. Ryan compares today's struggle for gay marriage with last generation's struggle for interracial marriages. His clients, two Phoenix men, have sued to marry in Arizona and are appealing the latest decision to the Arizona Supreme court. Arizona already has a statute prohibiting same-sex marriages, but not a constitutional amendment. Although some national gay and lesbian groups have disagreed with Ryan's timing, Ryan focuses on the words of Martin Luther King while in prison, detailing the merits of going forward now.
