Gay Marriage Passes Committee

Breaking News: The Judiciary Committee has voted to approve gay marriage in the state of Connecticut. The final vote was 27-15. The bill now goes to the State House of Representatives, where its future is said to be unknown. You can read the story here from the Hartford Courant.

This is how our following representatives from Danbury, who are on the Judiciary Committee, voted:

State Senator David Cappiello (R-24) - NO
State Representative Bob Godfrey (D-110) - YES
State Representative Jan Giegler (R-138) - NO

So, we will have to wait and see what happens. However, this has become a historic day for Connecticut.
