As above, Washington State senate has passes a same sex marriage bill, only a few years after passing a Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA). Now the new bill moves to the House where it is supposed to have enough votes to pass, and thence to the Governor who has said she will sign it into law. Opponents have claimed they will gather the needed signature to get a referendum on the Nov. Ballot to prevent the law from going into effect. They need a bit over 120,000 signatures, so could happen. For more, go to link.
