More senators back marriage; Gov. Perry on acceptance
More than half of U.S. senators back marriage equality, according to a Human Rights Campaign HRC press release. With announcements from Joe Donnelly D-Ind. and Heidi Heitkamp D-N.D., the total number of senators backing marriage equality has reached 53, including 49 Democrats, two Independents and two Republicans. HRC President Chad Griffin said, "The bipartisan tidal wave of support for marriage equality will only continue to swell as time progresses. Our leaders in Washington are finally catching up to the American people, who believe that committed and loving gay and lesbian couples deserve the right to marry."
