The Iowa Supreme Court ruled today that a ban on gay marriage violates the state constitution's equal protection clause. The ruling will take three weeks to implement and the original plaintiff has said that it will not ask for a rehearing. This means that by the end of the month, marriage equality will have come to the heartland of America. Indeed, "heartland" takes on a whole new meaning with this just ruling.
