Massachusetts gears up for same’sex-marriage showdown
BOSTON, Massachusetts (AP) — Gov. Mitt Romney plans to appear at a rally Sunday to demand that lawmakers, who have largely ignored him on the matter, vote on a proposed ballot question that would end same’sex marriage in Massachusetts.
Last week, the Legislature again refused to take up the question at a joint session, voting instead to recess until January 2, which all but killed the measure because a vote then is unlikely.
Romney’s spokesman, Eric Fehrnstrom, said the fight won’t be over until the people vote.
“No matter how you may feel about the marriage issue, people have a right to participate in their own government,” he said.
Life, Liberty And The Pursuit Of Happiness… Yep, that’s working out very well for some of us.
