WASHINGTON – Same-sex couples can start applying for marriage licenses Wednesday in Washington.
Supporters say couples planned to line up before the city’s marriage bureau opened at 8:30 a.m., and officials at the courthouse were expecting 200 or more people.
At least 16 couples were waiting at 7:15 a.m. inside the city’s Moultrie courthouse, which houses the marriage bureau and is just blocks from the U.S. Capitol.
