Portugal Almost Certain To Pass Marriage Equality Bill

Yes! Or as the Portuguese would say: Sim!

Portugal may soon become the sixth European country to allow gay marriage.

The country has created a proposal that would change the wording of law which currently says that marriage is between a man and a woman.

Portugal’s government is most likely to send it to lawmakers to debate in January and if President Anibal Cavaco Silva okays the proposal, gay marriage ceremonies could begin as soon as April.

However, if the conservative President vetoes the proposal, the decision can still be overturned by Parliament.

Hopefully Portugal makes the right decision!

Equality for ALL!
