Colorado Gov. Jared Polis marries longtime partner in historic first

Democratic Colorado Governor Jared Polis married his longtime partner Marlon Reis on Wednesday. It was the first ever same-sex wedding of a sitting U.S. governor.

“The greatest lesson we have learned over the past 18 months is that life as we know it can change in an instant,” Polis shared to his Twitter account. “We are thankful for the opportunity to celebrate our life together as a married couple.

“After 18 years together, we couldn’t be happier to be married at last,” he added.

Polis and Reis got engaged in late 2020.
