StatesThatAllowGayMarriage.com follows not only where same-sex couples 
can wed but which politicians are standing in the way of marriage 
equality.
The recently launched website has a map detailing where same-sex marriage and civil unions -- as well as marriage equality bans -- are in place. Each state can also be clicked on to reveal the marriage equality stances of that state's governor, U.S. senators, and U.S. representatives.
