The AP reports:

Mexico's Supreme Court ruled Tuesday that all 31 states must recognize same-sex marriages performed in the capital, though its decision does not force those states to begin marrying gay couples in their territory.

In a 9-2 decision, the tribunal cited an article of the constitution requiring states to recognize legal contracts drawn up elsewhere.

t did not specify what degree of recognition must be granted to same-sex couples.
Way to go, Mexico!!! This is a huge victory!

I will update this blog if/when more information becomes available.
