Gay Americans await Supreme Court marriage ruling

The US Supreme Court is to decide whether same-sex couples have a right to marry under the country’s constitution, setting up a potentially historic ruling on one of America’s most sweeping social issues.

The justices will take up gay rights cases that ask them to overturn bans in four states and declare for the entire nation that people can marry the partners of their choice, regardless of gender. The cases will be argued in April and a decision is expected by late June.
