Maine moving along toward equality

Maine moving along toward equality

Update on New Hampshire and Maine Same-sex marriage.

The Legislation does not require approval of the Governor to become law. The amended Senate bill must now be passed again by the State House. Good for New Hampshire.

Maine is also moving along toward equality. According to MassEquality, "Yesterday, the Maine judiciary committee voted 11-3 that the marriage bill "ought to pass without amendment." The bill will now go to the Maine House and Senate for a full vote. MassEquality is working closely with EqualityMaine to achieve full marriage rights for same-sex couples. This Saturday, May 2nd, we're headed to Maine to go door-to-door to talk with voters about marriage equality."
