Confirmed Today: Gay Marriage STILL Not Legal in Mass.!

For years now -- since 2005 -- the homosexual lobby has filed and refiled its bill to legalize "gay marriage" in Massachusetts. They know that the law as it now stands refers to "man/woman", "husband/wife" relationships as marriageToday, the Judiciary Committee once again sent the bill to "study" -- meaning, they killed it. But the very existence of this bill over the years confirms that we are correct that "gay marriage" has never been made legal in Massachusetts.

SHELVED TODAY:
House Bill 1708 
AN ACT TO PROTECT MASSACHUSETTS FAMILIES THROUGH EQUAL ACCESS TO CIVIL 
MARRIAGE 
Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives in General Court assembled, and by the authority 
of the same, as follows: 
SECTION 1. Chapter 207 is hereby amended by adding the 
following new section:— 
Section 37A. Any person who otherwise meets the eligibility requirements of this chapter may 
marry any other eligible person regardless of gender.

Why would the Judiciary Committee continue to bury this bill? We believe they don't want to draw attention to the fact that all the "gay marriages" since 2004 are fraudulent.

The Goodridge couple, who helped start the chaos, are now "divorced".
But they never had a valid "marriage" to begin with!

They don't want the citizens to focus on the overreach by the Supreme Judicial Court. They don't want the citizens to remember that the Court (unconstitutionally) ordered the Legislature to change the marriage statute in 2003 -- and the Legislature failed to act. And they don't want the citizens to focus on the overreach by then-Governor Romney, who without any Constitutional or statutory authority ordered the Department of Public Health to issue marriage licenses to same-sex couples, and ordered Town Clerks and Justices of the Peace to perform these illegal "marriages".

Don't expect these jokers to tell us WHY they shelved the bill. No transparency here.
