Statement of Attorney General Jepsen
on Federal Appeals Court
Defense of Marriage Act Ruling
Attorney
General George Jepsen released the following statement on the federal appeals
court Defense of Marriage Act Ruling:
“Discrimination
based on sexual orientation has no place in our society or under our laws.
Today’s decision is an important step toward affirming the right of all married
couples in the state of Connecticut to equal benefits under federal law –
benefits such as filing a joint tax return or receiving a survivor’s benefit
through Social Security. I applaud the court for this important decision and
would urge the U.S. Supreme Court to affirm this ruling when this issue comes
before it.”
