April 7, 2009
BREAKING: The Vermont Senate voted 23-5 to override Gov. Jim Douglas's (R) veto of the marriage bill. The House vote is next... From Marty Rouse, HRC's national field director, who's in the middle of the action at the Vermont statehouse: "The historic and strong senate override vote will be followed by a whisker of a win......for one side. The legislators are flowing into the House chamber and last minute lobbying, winking, and shoulder patting is in full swing." Watch the live proceedings here.
