D.C. Says YES to Marriage (Which Its Most Famous Resident Doesn’t Support)

In an 11-2 vote, D.C.’s City Council followed up an earlier vote and approved same-sex marriage for the district. The bill now head’s to the desk of Mayor Adrian Fenty, who’s promised to sign it, and then Congress will have a 30-day period to leave it be (most likely) or challenge it. The vote was immediately followed by an email blast from the Human Rights Campaign asking you to donate money to the organization, and beg Archbishop Donald Wuerl not to cut the Church’s social programs. Heh. Congrats, homos.
