Today, the Senate Judiciary Committee voted 10-8 in support of the amendment, down partisan lines. It will now be sent for dabate to the Senate floor, and Frist plans on bringing it up for a vote in early June.
I'm very disheartened by this, if you want to help please visit http://www.pflag.org and download their postcards to send to your senator or write or call or e-mail your senator, let them know that you don't want to see an amendment that takes away rights from a sect of people. This is a political tactic for election season, don't let the government take away rights just because they are up for re-election, let them know you won't vote for them if they vote to pass this amendment!
and pass this along if you believe that this amendment should not pass!
