Hawaii Senate Passes Civil Unions
By Neal Broverman
The Hawaii senate passed a civil unions bill Friday that, unlike a previous
civil unions bill, will likely make its way to a supportive governor.
The bill, SB 232, passed by a 19-6 vote and is identical to HB 444, a 2010
civil unions bill passed by both Hawaii's house and senate but vetoed by
then-governor Linda Lingle. Lingle, a Republican, was termed out of office
in 2010, and Democrat Neil Abercrombie, a civil unions supporter, was
elected in November.
“The Hawaii Senate has sent a strong message that discrimination against
families headed by same-sex couples is wrong,” HRC president Joe Solmonese
said in a press release. “All people of Hawaii deserve to be treated with
equal dignity and respect under the law, and no child should ever have to
grow up feeling that their family is somehow less than that of their friends
and neighbors.”
The state house will likely take up the civil unions issue next week. | k*****e 发帖数: 22013 | 2 换州长了就好了,
