My District 10 Washington State Senator, Mary Margaret Haugen, has just stated that she will support the marriage equality legislation now before the House and Senate. She had been a holdout for a long time and has now become the deciding vote in a tight Senate debate. I haven't yet heard her testimony, but it is extremely exciting to be part of this historical campaign.

YESSSS! I read the news earlier, and immediately thought of your post here! HOORAY!!!!
And I kid you not: my verification word is marie. As in, "Let everybody marie the person they love!"
:-)
And as in "thank you, Marie Margaret Haugen"!
Your post is the first I heard of this. I am so excited. Thank you indeed!
I was in the Seattle City Council Chambers yesterday when they passed a resolution supporting the state to support Marriage equality. I did not know that cities could do that, or did that. All of them sounded hopeful that change was coming, for once.
Christine, I hadn't heard of City Council supporting this yet, so that's additional wonderful news!
Woohoo! This is good news indeed! Now if we can Colorado on board...!
By the way, I like your new pic! :-)
Thanks, Pixie, it's the new 30 pounds lighter Ms. Kitty!
