FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. – Fort Lauderdale commissioners approved a resolution Tuesday in support of same-sex marriage.
Commissioners voted 3-2 in favor of the resolution, with the only opposition coming from Mayor Jack Seiler and Vice Mayor Romney Rogers.
The resolution "urges the Florida legislature and Gov. Rick Scott to enact a law that would provide for marriage equality" in the state.
It also calls for the city clerk to send a certified copy to Scott and the Broward County state legislative delegation.
Florida voters in 2008 passed an amendment to the state constitution that prohibits civil unions or same-sex marriages.
