Marriage Equality Act
The Marriage Equality Act is legislation that allows same-sex couples to marry legally, ensuring they have the same rights, protections, and recognition as opposite-sex couples. It aims to eliminate discrimination in marriage laws by affirming that love and commitment between two people, regardless of gender, deserve equal legal status. This act typically includes provisions for spousal benefits, inheritance, taxes, and legal protections, promoting fairness and equality in civil rights. Essentially, it recognizes and upholds the dignity and rights of all individuals to pursue marriage regardless of their gender identity or sexual orientation.
