Gay Marriage

President Clinton's spokesman said today the president would sign a bill that discourages same-sex marriages. The legislation would give each state the right to NOT recognize same-sex marriages performed in another state. Gay and lesbian advocates say that would deprive them of their rights as American citizens. NPR's Chitra Ragavan looks at the status of the pending bill.
