Five different Catholic governors (Maryland, Maine, New York, Washington, New Hampshire) have signed legislation giving people the rights of gay marriage. The political issues seem to split the religion in many ways. The given example from this article is that: "In the recent contraception controversy it was revealed that 98% of Catholic women have used contraception at sometime in their lives, even as the Catholic Bishops maintain the position that contraception goes against Catholic teaching."
Whether your opinion is that this is progress or it is trouble, these signings are sure to be controversial within the Church, and the result is yet to be seen.
