NP Rank:
Love and Marriage rally
Monday Feb. 16, statewide rally where people from all over the state joined on the steps of the Capitol to show our solidarity for the rights of 18,000 same-sex couples who were married and look forward to the day when those rights are available again, this time for everyone.
