Summary
In June 2014, Mayor Slay took the unprecedented step of directing that marriage licenses be issued to four same-sex couples in direct violation of the Missouri Constitution and state statutes banning same-sex marriage.

Now, due to that court decision, same-sex couples can now obtain marriage licenses in Missouri.
