Same-sex marriages are not licensed in the state of New Mexico, which also does not provide civil unions or domestic partnerships. New Mexico law does not explicitly permit or prohibit same-sex marriage, and it is unclear whether the state would recognize such marriages established in other jurisdictions. As of 2013 it was the only state without a statute explicitly addressing same-sex marriage.

Famous quotes containing the words recognition of, recognition, unions and/or mexico:

    “American feminists have generally stressed the ways in which men and women should be equal and have therefore tried to put aside differences.... Social feminists [in Europe] ... believe that men and society at large should provide systematic support to women in recognition of their dual role as mothers and workers.”
    —Sylvia Ann Hewitt (20th century)

    “While you are nurturing your newborn, you need someone to nurture you, whether it is with healthful drinks while you’re nursing, or with words of recognition and encouragement as you talk about your feelings. In this state of continual giving to your infant—whether it is nourishment or care or love—you are easily drained, and you need to be replenished from sources outside yourself so that you will have reserves to draw from.”
    —Sally Placksin (20th century)

    “The newly-formed clothing unions are ready to welcome her; but woman shrinks back from organization, Heaven knows why! It is perhaps because in organization one find the truest freedom, and woman has been a slave too long to know what freedom means.”
    —Katharine Pearson Woods (1853–1923)

    “I think New Mexico was the greatest experience from the outside world that I have ever had.”
    —D.H. (David Herbert)
