SACRAMENTO - JUNE 17: Surrounded by their children, Kim Coleman, (C) and her wife Jen Coleman, (R) celebrate their one-year wedding anniversary and the one-year anniversary of a California Supreme Court ruling allowing same-sex marriages, during a press conference June 17, 2009 in Sacramento, California. On June 16, 2008, the California Supreme Court ruled providing a constitutional right to same-sex marriages went into effect, only later in November for it to be overturned by voters. The courts then announced a ruling on May 19 upholding Proposition 8, which banned gay marriages in California; but also upheld the marriages that had been performed before the proposition passed were still valid.
