Any of you CA constitutional types know if this is anywhere near constitutional? I am in favor of gay marriage, but Newsom's actions seem to be an illegal power grab.
No one seems to think that the recent marriages would hold up in court, but that doesn't seem to be the issue for the people who are getting married. I don't know, but I would imagine that the City's lawsuit is an uphill battle.
