Mayors taking sides

Many American mayors met for a big conference recently (I'm sure there is an official name for it). Out of that came Mayors for the Freedom to Marry. It was led by the mayors of New York, Boston, Houston, San Diego, and Los Angeles. I haven't counted the list myself, though I've heard the total signatures tops 80 names. Included in it are the mayors of Michigan cities Grand Rapids, Kalamazoo, Ann Arbor, and Hamtramck.



Amazingly, Indiana will offer a gay-friendly license plate! This might be the first in the nation (commenters dispute first place). The plate shows a hand in front of rainbow stripes with the words "Indiana Youth Group." That's the organization that will get $25 of the $40 fee. See an image here.
