cosThere are a bunch of scary anti-gay marriage bills being considered, including one that would cancel all the marriages of same-sex couples already performed, and another that would remove the judges who voted for it. There are also a few good bills, like one that would repeal the 1913 law that makes it harder for out of state couples to get married in MA. The public hearing on all of these bills is tomorrow afternoon!
I posted the details here. If you're near Boston and care about this, please read that post and go to the hearing if you can. (I will unfortunately have to miss it, I'm in western MA and have a meetup to run in Amherst tomorrow evening)

I'm less confident about the constitutional amendment, but we're clearly gaining in the legislature. In fact, today is also the day of the special elections for three house seats where anti-gay reps resigned, and it's almost certain that all three winners today will be openly, boldly pro-gay rights.

A. the Commonwealth is making $$ off this new market, and
B. the very gates of Hell have not, in fact, opened wide and swallowed the sinners or swept away the sacred institution of heterosexual marriages.
So surely, only the most diehard fundies/conservatives have any reason to get behind these bills - are many of the proponents national Xtian orgs as I suspect?

He's right, this one won't pass. But they'll keep on trying.
