Schwarzenegger Supports Same-Sex Marriage
Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger has given his approval to same-sex marriages, saying that if the arrangement were put into state law it'd be "fine with me". He stated that current laws on the subject should not be broken in the meantime though.
He is also against President Bush's wish to ban such marriages through a federal constitutional amendment. "I think those issues should be left to the state, so I have no use for a constitutional amendment or change in that at all" he said.
The governors views were aired in an interview with Jay Leno in today's edition of The Tonight Show.
