Faaaaabulous!

Illinois is set to allow same-sex marriage after the House approved legislation on Tuesday. Chicago Democrat Gov. Pat Quinn has praised the vote, claiming that Illinois is now an example for the nation to follow, and confirming that he would sign the bill into law, although he did not specify a date.

Tuesday saw the House approve the same-sex marriage measure in a marginal vote 61-54. A floor debate lasted more than two hours prior to the vote being taken. […]

President Barack Obama, who was for a long time standing the fence on the issue of gay marriage, has said in a statement: “As President, I have always believed that gay and lesbian Americans should be treated fairly and equally under the law. Over time, I also came to believe that same-sex couples should be able to get married like anyone else.

“So tonight, Michelle and I are overjoyed for all the committed couples in Illinois whose love will now be as legal as ours — and for their friends and family who have long wanted nothing more than to see their loved ones treated fairly and equally under the law.”
