Ruth Bader Ginsburg to Officiate Same-Sex Wedding

The Justice will become the first Supreme Court member to officiate same-sex nuptials.

The Washington Post reports that Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg will become the first Supreme Court judge to officiate a same-sex marriage. The wedding, between Kennedy Center President Michael M. Kaiser and economist John Roberts, will take place tomorrow in Washington D.C. In the article, an excited Ginsburg says: 

I think it will be one more statement that people who love each other and want to live together should be able to enjoy the blessings and the strife in the marriage relationship … It won’t be long before there will be another.

The Post hints that she will officiate another wedding this spring. Read the rest of the article here.
