Equality Reigns Supreme!
Go New England!!!!!!!!!!!!
This has been such an AMAZING week!
Thursday morning, the Maine Senate passed a marriage equality bill, granting same-sex couples the same rights, privileges and protections that heterosexuals in the state have.
The bill now moves to the House of Representatives for consideration next week.
On Wednesday, the New Hampshire senate also legalized same-sex marriage. Their House already passed it as and the bill is now in the hands of the NH Governor, who has not said whether he will sign, veto or not sign.
Also yesterday, the U.S. House of Representatives passed the Matthew Shepard Hate Crimes Act, which extends federally protected categories to include sexual orientation and gender identity.
And, this week as a well, new polls show that right now, Americans as a whole are favoring gay marriage by 42%, that's 9% more than just a month ago. An additional 25% are in favor of civil unions.
Progress. Progress. Progress.
R.I.P.
Thank you miss california… You are showing this country how close minded it's been for too long!
Please, Please, Please, Mister govenor, VETOOO!
And, I hope the House of Reps stands up too!
I don't have a problem with people being gay but they don't have a right to get married…
Need I quote? "Marriage is a union between a MAN and a WOMAN"
No amount of makeup or sex changes can make you something you're not..
