Same-Sex Marriage

Travis County Clerk Dyana Limon-Mercado said it's important for the county to show solidarity with the queer community after the state Legislature passed several anti-LGBTQ bills last session.

The bill, which would ensure federal protections for same-sex and interracial marriages, now heads to President Biden's desk for signature.

Wary of political fallout, GOP leaders didn't direct members to hold the party line against the bill and dozens of Republicans joined Democrats in passing it. But it will likely stall in the Senate.
