: How AppealingBREAKING NEWS -- "Iowa Supreme Court upholds Hanson's ruling; marriage no longer limited to one man, one woman"
And The Associated Press reports that "Iowa court says gay marriage ban unconstitutional."
Today's ruling of the Supreme Court of Iowa can be accessed here. Because that court's web site has been overwhelmed with visits this morning, I have posted a back-up copy of the ruling at this link.
The court's unanimous ruling begins, "In this case, we must decide if our state statute limiting civil marriage to a union between a man and a woman violates the Iowa Constitution, as the district court ruled. On our review, we hold the Iowa marriage statute violates the equal protection clause of the Iowa Constitution. Therefore, we affirm the decision of the district court."
