(Warren, Michigan) A suburban Detroit same-sex couple is considering legal action after they were told Michigan's constitutional amendment that bans gay marriage means they can't get a family membership at Warren's community center.
Mark Jeason and Martin Murdick have been together about 18 years and have lived in Warren for the past 14 years.
Jeason tells the Detroit News that he was told by center employees that only husbands, wives and their children younger than 18 qualify for family rates.
"We pay taxes. We go to church. We make friends and support our community," Jeason told the paper.
The men said they had been looking forward to using the center's pool and fitness equipment.
