Pennsylvania has solved all of its problems

... and now our legislators have free time on their hands. Thanks to Greg for the heads-up. This is what he posted:

At the behest of anti-gay groups in PA, House Republicans Scott Boyd (District 43) and Daryl Metcalfe (District 12) have introduced a hateful piece of legislation--an amendment to our constitution that will not only define marriage, but may also ban civil union and partner benefits to boot.

In a state that already defines marriage as between a man and a woman, there is only one way to take this: a full frontal assault on our families and our children. Interesting considering the source of the legislation are “pro-family” groups.

House Bill 2381 was introduced in yesterday's session and was immediately referred to the State Government Committee.

The full text along with a list of all the cosponsors can be had here (pdf file -- at Greg's site).

If you're a PA resident, it's time to get in touch with both your Representative and Senator.
