Gay Marriage Debate
By Shelley Kurtz

Eugene -
Lane County is weighing the matter of gay marriage, and today issued a legal opinion.
James Beltran and Maryn Setros are planning to be married, this week. For the heterosexual couple, the process is relatively easy, filling out the paperwork, getting a license issued.
It's not a process same sex couples will see in Lane County soon. "So, the decision has been to just go ahead continue to issue the licenses to a man and a woman and waiting for a higher court decision," said county clerk Annette Newingham.
