Mayor Michael Bloomberg, a staunch supported of New York’s same sex marriage law, has announced that he will officiate at the wedding of two city official on July 24th. From Reuters:
“John and Jonathan have each done so much to make the City a better place, and together, they helped me see the issue of marriage equality in very clear terms,” Bloomberg said in a statement provided through a spokesman. “This will be one of the biggest days of their lives, a day they’ve waited a long time to see, and I’m just honored to be a part of it.”
This is only the third time that Bloomberg has officiated a wedding since taking office.
