Pennsylvania Attorney General Kathleen Kane announced Thursday that she will not defend the state’s ban on gay marriage after the American Civil Liberties Union filed a suit Tuesday challenging the law.
“I cannot ethically defend the constitutionality of Pennsylvania’s version of DOMA,” she said, referring to the state’s 1996 law that mirrored the federal Defense of Marriage Act’s definition of marriage as being between one man and one woman.
