Good news from Harrisburg: Yesterday, the Pennsylvania State Senate Judiciary Committee voted to table SB 707, the so-called "Marriage Protection Amendment". This discriminatory bill would have written bigotry into the state constitution by banning same-sex marriage in Pennsylvania.
The bill was tabled via a bipartisan vote of 8-6, so it will not move to the Senate floor at this time.
Let's keep our fingers crossed in hopes that this bill does not get resurrected in the future.
