(The law was originally used to prevent out-of-state interracial couples from marrying in the

Southwest Airlines Launches Gay and Lesbian Travel Site

Southwest Airlines has just launched a travel site dedicated “to the gay and lesbian community,” following the example of American Airlines and other travel firms.
