美国中文网报道，政治网称，美国华盛顿州州议会上周通过同性恋者婚姻法案，州长葛瑞格华今天签署成为法律，让华盛顿州成为全美第7个认可同性婚姻的州。该法案6月7日正式生效。

报道称，民主党籍的葛瑞格华，在奥林匹亚议会接待室举行的签署式中签署立法，在场支持者报以热烈掌声，她说：“我以同性恋者将受到公平对待感到骄傲，这是美国同性恋者权利运动的最新胜利。”葛瑞格华称，在自己宣布支持同性婚姻后，有许多同性选民陆续联系她，向她倾诉自己的故事。自己的两个女儿使她认识到婚姻平等是重要的民权问题。先前曾经支持同性婚姻合法化的议员墨菲也说：“朋友们，我们欢迎你们到彩虹的另一端。”

预料反对者将会提出上诉，同性婚姻的合法性未来可能会由美国最高法院作最后裁定。除非反对同性恋者结婚的人士能搜集到足够的联署，以寻求公民投票推翻州议会的决定，否则华盛顿州同性婚姻法案，在州长签字后，将自6月7日起，同性恋者可以在华盛顿州结婚。倘若反对者联署成功，该法将暂遭搁置，直到11月6日总统和国会大选时举行公投再作决定。

目前纽约州、麻萨诸塞州、康乃狄克州、佛蒙特州、新罕布什尔州和爱阿华州，以及华盛顿特区都承认同性婚姻。加州在2008年曾短暂认可同性婚姻，但后来在1项州宪法修正公民投票提案，将加州的婚姻关系定义为1男、1女的结合，也就是不接受同性恋婚姻。美国联邦上诉法院上周裁定，加州禁止同性恋者结婚的提案违宪无效。

报道称，以民主党籍议员占多数的新泽西州州议会，近日表决通过同性婚姻合法化的法案，但共和党籍州长克里斯蒂说，他将否决这项法案。

2015年6月26日“Our nation was founded on a bedrock principle that we are all created equal. The project of each generation is to bridge the meaning of those founding words with the realities of changing times — a never-ending quest to ensure those words ring true for every single American.Progress on this journey often comes in small increments. Sometimes two steps forward, one step back, compelled by the persistent effort of dedicated citizens. And then sometimes there are days like this, when that slow, steady effort is rewarded with justice that arrives like a thunderbolt.This morning, the Supreme Court recognized that the Constitution guarantees marriage equality. In doing so, they have reaffirmed that all Americans are entitled to the equal protection of the law; that all people should be treated equally, regardless of who they are or who they love.This decision will end the patchwork system we currently have. It will end the uncertainty hundreds of thousands of same-sex couples face from not knowing whether they’re marriage, legitimate in the eyes of one state, will remain if they decide to move or even visit another.This ruling will strengthen all of our communities by offering to all loving same-sex couples the dignity of marriage across this great land.In my second inaugural address, I said that if we are truly created equal, then surely the love we commit to one another must be equal as well. It is gratifying to see that principle enshrined into law by this decision.This ruling is a victory for Jim Obergefell and the other plaintiffs in the case. It’s a victory for gay and lesbian couples who have so long for their basic civil rights. It’s a victory for their children, whose families will now be recognized as equal to any other. It’s a victory for the allies and friends and supporters who spent years, even decades working and praying for change to come.And this ruling is a victory for America. This decision affirms what millions of Americans already believe in their hearts. When all Americans are treated as equal, we are all more free.My administration has been guided by that idea. It’s why we stopped defending the so-called Defense of Marriage Act and why we were pleased when the court finally struck down the central provision of that discriminatory law. It’s why we ended, “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell.”From extending full marital benefits to federal employees and their spouses to expanding hospital visitation rights for LGBT patients and their loved ones, we’ve made real progress in advancing equality for LGBT Americans in ways that were unimaginable not too long ago.I know a change for many of our LGBT brothers and sisters must have seemed so slow for so long. But compared to so many other issues, America’s shift has been so quick.I know that Americans of good will continue to hold a wide range of views on this issue. Opposition, in some cases, has been based on sincere and deeply held beliefs. All of us who welcome today’s news should be mindful of that fact and recognize different viewpoints, revere our deep commitment to religious freedom.But today should also give us hope that on the many issues with which we grapple, often painfully, real change is possible. Shift in hearts and minds is possible. And those who have come so far on their journey to equality have a responsibility to reach back and help others join them, because for all of our differences, we are one people, stronger together than we could ever be alone. That’s always been our story.We are big and vast and diverse, a nation of people with different backgrounds and beliefs, different experiences and stories but bound by the shared ideal that no matter who you are or what you look like, how you started off or how and who you love, America is a place where you can write your own destiny.We are people who believe every child is entitled to life and liberty and the pursuit of happiness. There is so much more work to be done to extend the full promise of America to every American. But today, we can say in no uncertain terms that we’ve made our union a little more perfect.That’s the consequence of a decision from the Supreme Court, but more importantly, it is a consequence of the countless small acts of courage of millions of people across decades who stood up, who came out, talked to parents, parents who loved their children no matter what, folks who were willing to endure bullying and taunts, and stayed strong, and came to believe in themselves and who they were.And slowly made an entire country realize that love is love.What an extraordinary achievement, but what a vindication of the belief that ordinary people can do extraordinary things; what a reminder of what Bobby Kennedy once said about how small actions can be like pebbles being thrown into a still lake, and ripples of hope cascade outwards and change the world.Those countless, often anonymous heroes, they deserve our thanks. They should be very proud. America should be very proud.Thank you."
