Michigan mayor officiating over same-sex ceremony
In Ferndale, Michigan, the mayor plans to give his blessing to same-sex unions, without trying to make them legal marriages. Mayor Bob Porter is simply recognizing the commitment the couples have for each other, but the American Family Association of Michigan is complaining that he gives legal sanction to the couples who don't deserve it. This is the second time a Ferndale mayor has blessed same-sex unions, the second time the AFA has complained to the state, and the second time the state attorney general has said as long the mayor does not proclaim them official marriages, there's no harm done.
