Massachusetts Constitutional Convention: We Won!

The legislators of Massachusetts did the right thing. Final vote was 45 in favor of sending a same-sex marriage ban to the voters; 151 against.

Congratulations to all those who fought for this and supported the cause of equality. Now I need to call my spouse at work and tell her the news.

   This is such an important victory for equality. Massachusetts should be celebrating today, and all of us fighting for same-sex marriage!

   It passed our CA Assembly and I’m almost sure it will pass the Senate (if it hasn’t already – I’ve been a little out of it).

   Then we’ll wait for our governor to veto it – again. Or maybe not if he’s paying attention.
