Those in favor say...

Michigan's same-sex marriage case will be before the Supremes on April 28. Leading up to that various groups are writing briefs explaining to the justices how they should rule. Here are some of them:

Over 300 corporations and organizations have signed a brief in favor of same-sex marriage. The list includes Amazon, Apple, Facebook, Google, and Disney.

Another brief includes a list of 300 GOP former and current campaign operators and lawmakers who are again in favor of same-sex marriage. Alas, the list is heavier on the former and the campaign operators part of the party.

The Obama Administration has filed a brief in favor.

The Human Rights Campaign has created The People's Brief, which common citizens may sign. This is a chance for us to tell the Supremes that the country is ready for same-sex marriage. They have more than 207,000 signatures. Alas, I procrastinated a bit too long to be among that number – the signatures were delivered to the court yesterday. You can download the brief from the site and read it, or at least see what goes into a brief.
