cappie Posted September 7, 2005 Share Posted September 7, 2005 Gay marriage bill approved in California September 7, 2005 - 1:20PM The California Legislature became the first legislative body in the US to allow same-sex marriages, as gay-rights advocates overcame two earlier defeats in the Assembly. The 41-35 vote sends the bill to Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger. The bill's supporters compared the legislation to earlier civil rights campaigns, including efforts to eradicate slavery and give women the right to vote. "Do what we know is in our hearts," said the bill's sponsor, San Francisco Democrat Mark Leno. "Make sure all California families will have the same protection under the law."

Niccolò Posted September 7, 2005 Share Posted September 7, 2005 Living here is crazy. I don't really see our governor signing this, going so blatantly against the will of the people. Let's hope I'm right... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
