Wasserman Schultz Statement on Broward Judge Same-Sex Marriage Decision

WASHINGTON - U.S. Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz (FL-23) issued the following statement today after Broward Judge Dale Cohen  overturned Florida's ban on same-sex marriage, making him the third judge to do so in three weeks:

"Judge Cohen landed on the right side of history today when he ruled Florida’s same sex marriage ban unconstitutional,” said U.S. Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz. “In a state so rich in diversity, it’s important that we continue to take these steps to ensure Florida is welcoming to everyone regardless of who you love.

“County by county these recent rulings in the South Florida courts further confirm how much work we have left to do and I look forward as we continue the march towards full marriage equality for all Floridians.”
