Just marrying with a green card holder doesn't make you eligible for EAD. Your spouse should first file I-130, wait for your priority date to be current and then you can file for EAD (I-765) while filing I-485 (permanent residency).
Alternately, you don't have to wait for priority date to be current, if you file I-130 and I-485 plus I-765 after your spouse becomes U.S. citizen.
