Discriminatory laws that prevent marriage equality in Panama have a real-life impact for same-sex couples in the country, including the three couples featured in this video. Under international human rights law, arbitrarily treating same-sex couples differently from different-sex couples is illegal, including with respect to marriage. Panama should join other countries in the region that have extended the right to marry to same-sex couples.
