Marriage Equality Advances in MN House and Senate

After emotional testimony both for and against marriage equality, bills supporting gay marriage passed committees in tooth the Minnesota house and senate. There were so many beautiful stories about love and commitment from same sex couples and allies alike. Anti-gay opponents were equally as loud, although nothing new was offered. The usual “life will cease” and “will someone think about the children” were the general theme, as it has always been with bigotry. Recall debates about the civil rights of blacks and women…. Nothing new here, folks. Bigots only have one tactic… Fear.

Because of budgetary issues taking a priority, debate before the full house and senate will not happen for several weeks.

Civil Unions Bill Passes in Colorado

Civil Unions Bill Passes in Colorado and is Likely to Become Law

Today Colorado lawmakers took a historic vote on the approval of civil unions for gay couples. The Civil Unions Bill passed and will most likely become law within the state! Here is a full update from the recent article by Ivan Moreno on the Huffington Post.

DENVER — A measure allowing civil unions for gay couples has cleared the Colorado Legislature and is headed to the governor’s desk, where it’s expected to be signed.

The bill won final passage Tuesday on a 39-26 House vote, with two Republicans joining all Democrats to approve it.

Once the measure is signed, Colorado will join eight states that have civil unions or similar laws. Nine states and the District of Columbia allow gay marriage.

The bill’s approval marks a significant political shift in a western state that traditionally has had deep conservative roots but has become more moderate over the past decade.

Colorado voters banned gay marriage seven years ago. That means civil unions are the only option for gay couples in the state, but a U.S. Supreme ruling on gay marriage laws could change that.
