Another Victory For Marriage Equality

From Human Rights Campaign:

Yet another major victory in New England: today New Hampshire's governor signed marriage equality into law, making it the sixth state to allow loving same-sex couples to marry.

The bill survived a spate of propaganda from the right-wing National Organization for Marriage – the same group that ran the fake "Gathering Storm" ad – hammering Gov. John Lynch to veto equality.


Watch their video.

The battle is won. No longer "if" but "when". True the "when" may be far too distant in some states, but the tide has turned. It flows toward justice and equality.

  1. I was glad to see the state where I grew up do this. I have the feeling that the state motto, "Live Free or Die" has something to do with the passage. Taken in its nicest sense if we don't live free we die, at least psychologically and emotionally.

  2. Once again, I must say that I'm sorry that our church is not the leader in the march to justice.
