Fifty-six percent of Americans Support Marriage Equality


by Brig Bagley

3 March 2014

Recent studies by NY Times and CBS News have shown enormous growth of support for same-sex marriages. In just a short 10 years, the numbers from surveys jumped from 34% of Americans to 56% of Americans. The numbers are reflected in the on-going legal recognition of same-sex marriage in 17 states and counting. 

The numbers are high even in conservatives, especially in Americans under the age of 40. With the combination of younger generations taking over older ones and the progressive legalization of same-sex marriage, the numbers are expected to continue to rise.
