UPDATE: Gov. Mark Dayton signed marriage equality into Minnesota law this afternoon. He gave these remarks before signing the bill, pictured below:

Yesterday, the Minnesota State Senate approved same-sex marriage. At 5 p.m., Gov. Mark Dayton will sign the marriage equality bill into law in a ceremony in St. Paul. Minnesota becomes the 12th state to legalize marriage for everyone, eliminating legal and sometimes cruel barriers preventing people with deeply-held love from living normally in society.
