For people that are registered to vote in Texas, there's an election next Tuesday (November 8). Please vote
No on Proposition 2, which would not only ban gay marriage in the Texas Constitution, but prevent any "legal status identical or similar to marriage". So, clearly civil unions are not permitted, but perhaps even legal documents that would give
djedi and I some rights associated with marriage (visitation rights in the hospital, next-of-kin type status, etc.)
This is a special election, so turnout will likely be low, which means that we do have a chance to reject this amendment!
