A protest in support of same-sex marriage took place Friday afternoon at Mobile Probate Court.
Two same sex couples that were already married in other states tried to get their licenses recognized in Alabama, even though they knew they would be told no.
The state doesn’t recognize or perform same-sex marriage, a frustration for these couples.
On January 2nd, five LGBT couples requested marriage licenses in Hattiesburg, Mississippi as part of the WE Campaign. Watch their story:
