guywithmonstersGreat news! Domestic Partnership legislation just passed the NJ Assembly with a wide margin.
41 for Domestic Partnership Legislation
28 against
9 abstentions
If you live in NJ - please contact your state senator.
In addition, it passed in the Senate judiciary Committee today as well. Next it has to go to the Senate Appropriations Committee which will hopefully meet January 8th. Assuming it passes through the Appropriations Committee, it will go before the full Senate on January 12th.
Thanks to all of you who helped. But we still have work to do.
Whether you already have, or have not yet, contacted your Senator to state your support for the bill, please do so right now, again, at this website: http://www.njlgc.org/writenow.html. Ask your friends, family, and in-state mailing lists to do the same. The bill number is S2820. Even leaving a message on a district office phone would be helpful.
