New York, New York!
Today the Senate of New York voted to pass a bill making same-sex marriage legal. Gov. Cuomo signed it, and it will take effect in 30 days. New York joins Connecticut, Iowa, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Vermoont and Washington D.C.
Twitter and Tumblr were bursting with celebratory messages. This song kept running through my head. Liza Minelli performed it in Martin Scorcese's amazing film New York, New York (1977). This performance from "Liberty Weekend" in 1986 (the centenary of the Statue of Liberty). I love her incredible stage presence.
This wonderful picture of the rainbow-lit Empire State building is making the rounds on Twitter.
