President Joe Biden on Dec. 13 signed a bill declaring marriage can be between people of the same sex.

“Today is a good day. Today America takes a final step toward equality, toward liberty and justice—not just for some, but for everyone,” Biden said outside the White House in Washington before signing the bill. “Toward creating a nation where decency, dignity, and love are recognized, honored, and protected.”
