Illinois Prosecutors Refuse to Defend Ban on Marriage Equality

Lambda Legal Marriage Project Director Camilla Taylor tells the Associated Press that she never has had a case in which the defendants agreed with her.

It "reflects the fact that we're at a tipping point now ... (because) our government finds these laws indefensible," she said. She went on to add, "It comes at a time when a form of discrimination against a class of people in our society is so shameful and reprehensible that it's incapable of defense."
