| Today between 3-5 PM CST, Chief U.S. District Judge Vaughn Walker of San Francisco will issue a ruling in the Perry v. Schwarzenegger case to decide the constitutionality of Proposition 8 passed by California voters in 2008 to remove equal marriage rights for gay and lesbians which had previously been afforded by the state supreme court. Below I have posted information for Texans who want to be updated on the results of the ruling as well as public gatherings scheduled around Texas later today (regardless of the outcome of the ruling).
