Just as President Obama’s views on same-sex marriage have evolved over time, laws across the country have also evolved to grant — and sometimes deny — LGBT rights on a range of issues. The Guardian newspaper website launched a new interactive yesterday that details the laws in each state regarding same-sex marriage; hospital visitation; hate crimes; adoption; and workplace, school and housing discrimination. Compare the laws in your state or region with the rest of the country. You can even sign in to Facebook and focus on rights in the states your friends live.
