Legislation to legalize same-sex marriage in New York cleared the last major
hurdle with a 33-to-29 vote in the state Senate, sending the bill to the
governor's desk for his expected approval.

A vote on the measure, which the state Assembly passed June 15, had been
stalled in the Senate. But it turned a corner Friday, according to Senate
Majority Leader Dean Skelos, after lawmakers agreed on an amendment pushed
by Republicans to protect religious groups from potential litigation.

Currently, the District of Columbia and five states -- Massachusetts,
Connecticut, Iowa, Vermont and New Hampshire -- grant same-sex marriage
licenses.
