Same-sex marriage occurs every day in the United States, but only in states where it has been legalized. Every business day, same-sex couples are issued marriage licenses somewhere in the United States. The numbers are certain to increase as more states legalize such marriages. Significant legal developments on the federal level are certain to occur sometime between March 26 and June 30, 2013, as the United States Supreme Court decides the constitutionality of California's Proposition 8 and the Defense of Marriage Act.
