Persons Authorized to Solemnize Matrimony

SB 580 would allow members of the state legislature (state senators and representatives) to legally perform marriage ceremonies, expanding the current list of authorized officiants. This directly affects legislators, enabling them to solemnize marriages as part of their official duties. The key provision amends existing law to explicitly include legislators among those permitted to officiate weddings, alongside clergy, judges, and other designated officials. The bill does not change marriage eligibility or requirements for couples.
