There is mixed reaction in Virginia regarding the U.S. Supreme Court’s ruling in favor of federal recognition of all legal marriages. In a statement, the Attorney General’s office says it will defend the Virginia Constitution, which defines marriage as the union between one man and one woman. But as Virginia Public Radio’s Tommie McNeil reports, that position is pitted against another legal juggernaut, the ACLU, which is applauding the decision and says it will fight to pave the way for same-sex marriages within the state.
