Very exciting news greeted me when I got off work today. After much discussion, the Illinois House passed SB10 by a 61-54 margin. SB10 is a same-sex marriage bill. Then, -- before I even had the opportunity to react -- the Illinois Senate passed SB10 by a 32-21 margin. Governor Pat Quinn has already vowed to sign this bill into law.
So Illinois will become the 15th marriage equality state!!
This changes from civil unions to marriage will go into effect on June 1, 2014.
