“Washington has made history and I couldn’t be prouder. Voters stood up
for what is right and what is just and said that all Washington families
are equal under the law. I am proud that our LGBT families will no
longer be treated as separate but equal, they will be equal. “This is a day that historians will look back on as a turning point for
equality. It is a day I will look back on as Washington state leading
the nation. And it is a day that I will carry with me forever.”
Washington State Governor Chris Gregoire, statement on the passage of the state's Referendum 74, legalizing same-sex marriage in Washington, November 8, 2012.
