Gay Marriage Bill Approved By New Jersey Assembly

Gay marriage 2Yesterday, New Jersey’s Assembly approved a gay marriage bill with a 41 to 33 vote. This bill could make New Jersey the seventh state to legalize same-sex marriage. Republican Governor Chris Christie will need to sign the bill for it to become law, however, and Christie has promised to veto the bill.
