I'm not certain we have the votes. I mean, if it doesn't happen, we tried, and it's not lethal. It can come up again. It's just that I don't see it ending well this year.CrackerLilohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18176388186521154104noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3451574857665049482.post-68782928271188913602009-06-22T10:25:54.710-04:002009-06-22T10:25:54.710-04:00This is what being reported on towleroad and Joe M...This is what being reported on towleroad and Joe My God. At this point regardless of what the truth is, it is essential to contact them and urge them to support bringing up and voting for the bill anyways.Queers Unitedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05074493276489593816noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3451574857665049482.post-23751793111381069402009-06-22T10:22:43.204-04:002009-06-22T10:22:43.204-04:00I am sorry we don't want to piss off the senat...I am sorry we don't want to piss off the senators that are our co sponsors by accussing them of the wrong motives Liz Kreuger wants the just the opposite she doesn't want the tax bills to be voted on in one session she wants the marrige bill to be interspurced with the tax bills so the rep will be forced to take a vote. Please read the Gay city news article <br />gaycitynews.com Will Sen Pattersons bill help or hurt.... Or go to my blog to read the article. half way down Liz kruger quotes.

If the bill would come up they would vote in favor. At this point we need to ensure they make the bill come up AND vote in the affirmative.Queers Unitedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05074493276489593816noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3451574857665049482.post-34999423021059806262009-06-22T10:04:08.875-04:002009-06-22T10:04:08.875-04:00the information here is incorrect these dem senato...the information here is incorrect these dem senators listed are all cosponsors of the marriage equality bill. They are on a committee to decided what bills will come to the floor. Sen Kruger wants to intermiggle the tax bills with the social justice bills and others. The REP want to vote only on the tax bills in one sessions and not show up for future session for other bills. calling these senators are good but make sure for the right reason. they are on our side.michaelhttp://www.samesexmarriageadvocate.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.com
