Board of Elections and Ethics to demand that marriage equality be put to a vote. Though their most recent loss was a mere two weeks ago, they’ll be back before the board today, promoting an initiative that would allow voters to define marriage in the District as being solely between a man and a woman.
As recent hearings have shown, today’s session — set to kick off at 10:30 a.m. — could well feature a whole lot of crazy.
In related news, GLAA Forum’s Bob Summersgill did a little counting and is guessing that last week’s snow storms probably only delayed the 30-day congressional review period by a single day. He’s guessing that on March 3, same-sex marriage will officially become D.C. law.
