Proponents of same-sex marriage hope to build on recent successes in Vermont, Maine and New Hampshire and rally support for legislation elsewhere. Opponents, too, are mobilizing - hoping to prevent other states from passing similar legislation.

Jennifer Pizer is the National Marriage Project Director at Lambda Legal. Brian Brown, is Executive Director of the National Organization for Marriage. They spoke with VPR's Jane Lindholm about strategies they'll pursue in states where same-sex marriage is being debated.
