Supporters of same-sex marriage present petitions to McHenry County lawmakers

Religious leaders, gay rights advocates, and other supporters of marriage equality presented petitions to two McHenry County lawmakers Monday in support of same-sex marriage. 

Members of the Unitarian Universalists Congregation in McHenry, The Parents, Families, and Friends of Lesbian and Gays (PFLAG), and the United States Transgender Advocacy group in Wonder Lake, IL met at the offices of state Sen. Pamela Althoff and state Rep. Jack Franks to show their support for marriage equality. 

Illinois is expected to vote on marriage equality legislation later this week.
