Connecticut ok's gay civil unions

Republican CT. Governor M. Jodi Rell signed into law on April 20th legislation supporting same sex civil unions. Connecticut is the second state to offer civil unions to same sex couples. Vermont has civil unions without determined opposition and Massachusetts has gay marriage but possibly not for long. All other states oppose same sex rights but possibly not California. The State Senate voted 26-8 in favor on April 20th. The State House voted 85-63 in favor on April 13th.

Senators in favor: Senate Bill No. 963 as amended by House Amendments Schedules "A" (LCO 5446) and "B" (LCO5419)
