President Biden on Tuesday signed into law a bill protecting same-sex and interracial marriages.
“Today is a good day. A day America takes a vital step toward equality, for liberty and justice, not just for some, but for everyone,” Mr. Biden said at a large celebration on the South Lawn of the White House.
Mr. Biden said support for same-sex marriage simply comes down to the simple question of “Who do you love?”
“Everyone should have the right to answer those questions for themselves, without government interference,” the president continued.
Thousands of guests arrived at the White House to attend the bill-signing ceremony.
