Same-Sex Marriage Expected to Boost Wedding Business
Cake shops, wedding venues expect to see part of $90 million boost from marriage-equality provision.
With the passage of Question 6 approving same-sex marriage, some financial analysts say believe that Maryland’s economy could see as much as a $90 million boost, according to a recent Gazette story. Mark Yost, president of the Maryland Gay & Lesbian Chamber of Commerce, quoted research from UCLA's Williams Institute that there could be $3.6 million in sales and lodging tax revenue, and $21 million per year from wedding-related businesses. A reporter for the Baltimore Business Journal spoke with Mary Alice Yetskey, the marketing director of Duff Goldman’s Charm City Cakes, who believes that her business will see a “much busier January” than normal. The story also quotes Mark Scurti, an attorney specializing in LGBT issues at Towson’s …

OPINION: County Executive Celebrates Same-Sex Marriage
Ken Ulman co-hosts fundraiser with Howard County official supporting Marylanders for Marriage Equality.
On Tuesday, I received an email inviting me to an event co-hosted by Howard County Executive Ken Ulman and Howard County Register of Wills Byron Macfarlane. The event is “in support of marriage equality in Maryland,” specifically benefiting the umbrella group Marylanders for Marriage Equality. As Joe Biden would say, this is a big [expletive] deal. It’s perhaps not as a big a deal as it would have been a month ago, before President Obama openly declared his support for same-sex marriage.

Poll: Should Maryland Legalize Same-Sex Marriage?
O’Malley introduced legislation on Monday to make same-sex marriage legal.
Gov. Martin O’Malley introduced legislation this week that would make same-sex marriage legal in Maryland.

Washington, D.C., as well as six other states, have laws allowing same-sex marriage, according to the Baltimore Sun. “Other states have found a way to do this. We can find a way to do this, too,” O’Malley said during a press conference Tuesday morning, which was posted on YouTube. The Maryland Catholic Conference of Roman Catholics, as well as the Maryland …

If there were enough votes to pass gay marriage via referendum, wouldn't those same votes be enough to help Ulman take office? Not that I want him to, or think he will. I'm just saying, whatever votes he lost from one group he possibly gained from another. more ›
