VIDEO: HRC raises Maine state flag over headquarters
May 6, 2009
Today Maine Governor John Baldacci signed a marriage equality bill passed by the state legislature, making Maine the fifth state in the U.S. to allow same-sex couples to legally marry under state law. A few staffers went up to roof again to raise the Maine state flag over the Human Rights Campaign headquarters in Washington, DC. I briefly chatted with Marty Rouse, HRC's national field director and Susanne Salkind, HRC's managing director - and former Maine resident - about the marriage bill. At this rate, we're going to need a few more flag poles! Watch the video here:
