HOBART, WI (WTAQ) – Wisconsin’s Oneida Indian nation will begin allowing same-sex marriages next month.
The tribe announced Thursday that its business committee unanimously voted in favor of the change.
Current Oneida law defines a marriage as between a “husband and wife.” Starting June 10th, the code will simply allow “spouses” to be legally married.
The Oneida tribe is based near Green Bay. Same-sex marriages became legal in the Badger State last fall.
