Mexico To Get Gay Divorce !

The Attorney General in New Mexico recently issued a very well-written Opinion, stating that same-sex marriages from other states should be recognized in New Mexico. If the state government agencies and local courts adopt this opinion, couples that married in other states (such as Massachusetts or Iowa) who live in New Mexico will be treated as married for all state-law purposes. This would include state tax benefits, public and private benefits, and public assistance programs. It should also make it easier for same-sex couples to legally co-parent their children. Most importantly to us, it would also extend the right to divorce to same-sex spouses.
