Delaware House passed civil unions bill, now over to Governor

Progress in Delaware:

The Delaware House of Representatives gave final approval Thursday evening to a civil unions bill that will provide same-sex couples with all of the rights and benefits of marriage under state law.

The House voted 26-15 in favor of the measure. The Delaware Senate voted 13-6 to approve the bill on April 7, and the state’s governor, Democrat Jack A. Markell, has said he plans to sign it

Congrats to all involved.
