Meanwhile, the Iowa State Judicial committee voted 13-8 yesterday to move the bill banning Marriage Equality out of committee and to the full State House. It is expected that this bill adding discrimination to our state constitution, will pass the House. Its chances in the State Senate are not nearly as certain. If it passes both the House and the Senate this year, it will have to do so again in Jan 2013. After which it will go to be voted on by the people in November 2013. If it fails to pass then the soonest it could be put on the ballot is 2016.

This space is designed for thoughtful commentary on politics and media (and whatever else comes to mind). The Pajama Pundit welcomes people from all political stripes to voice opinions freely and without fear of mean-spirited attacks. He does however expect intelligent discussion -- and some understanding of proper grammar usage.

Please refrain from personal attacks on authors or other users. Back up your argument with documentation (links to elsewhere on the web). This is a big sandbox -- so please play nicely with one another.
NOTE: For all of the HTML nerds out there (like me), anchor, strong (bold), em (italic) and blockquote tags work within the comment form.
