Marriage Equality USA, Inc. is a national nonprofit organization driven by volunteers, focused on securing legally recognized civil marriage equality at both federal and state levels for all people, regardless of gender identity or sexual orientation. Its history stretches back to the late 1990s, when advocacy groups in New York and California formed related campaigns that laid the groundwork for a national effort. The organization became a registered 501(c)(3) in 2009 and later consolidated its structure with the New York chapter, establishing its current national presence. In the public policy space, MEUSA advocates for legislative reforms that ensure civil marriage rights are recognized for same-sex couples and others seeking legal status. With a small team based in New York, the organization operates through volunteers to advance its mission within the broader marriage equality movement, and a 2015 report notes its role in the national recognition of marriage equality.
