This HO said NO! Gov. Linda Lingle Vetoes Civil Unions
This tramp!
Gov. Lingle said NO to civil unions in Hawaii!
After deliberating for weeks, Hawaii's governor has vetoed a bill that would have permitted same-sex civil unions.Tuesday's veto came on the final day that Republican Gov. Linda Lingle had to either sign or veto the contentious bill. The Hawaii Legislature had approved it in late April.
Had Lingle not vetoed it, the measure would have granted gay and lesbian couples the same rights and benefits that the state provides to married couples.
It also would have made Hawaii one of six states that essentially grant the rights of marriage to same-sex couples without authorizing marriage itself. Five other states and the District of Columbia permit same-sex marriage.
Earlier Tuesday, supporters waved rainbow flags in front of the state Capitol. Opponents prayed in the hallways for a veto.
Will She or Won't She
Hawaii Governor Linda Lingle has a big decision in her hands.
She could sign or veto the civil unions bill tomorrow. The question is what will she do?
KHON 2 reports:
We will see what Miss Girl will do.Her options are to sign it, veto, or allow it to become law without her signature.
"I really thought about this more than I thought about any other piece of legislation and any other issue that's faced society,” said Gov. Lingle. “I don't know the exact number but I think it's running 60-40 against but as I'm going to talk about tomorrow -- that isn't what helped me to make a decision on this it was really the depth of feeling on both sides -- so I look forward to sharing that with everybody tomorrow."
The civil unions bill gives same-sex couples the same rights and responsibilities of marriage.
