Mayor Rahm Emanuel said Wednesday that he would press for legislation pending in Springfield that would legalize same-sex marriage in Illinois.
“I’ll push for it because it is consistent with the values base, and the practical values base, that I think is right as a city, as a state and as a country,” said Emanuel, who supported gay marriage during the mayoral campaign.
