allopenstar"It means if Washington passes marriage equality and it survives a referendum challenge, anti-family groups wouldn't be able to use a separate ballot initiative to repeal marriage equality."
SO MUCH GEMS in this post of the P8TT.
Like the fact that states now have precedent and reference when they are on marriage equality cases, and that the next appeal might go straight to the US Supreme Court which can take months or several years but the ruling would/might be nationwide.
CRAZY.
To think this whole issue began about 3 years ago, and the trial began over 2 years ago. Finally, an end is in sight.
Also, Washington House is due to vote in the next few days.
Edit: More details
AFER Press Conference.
Next steps, post-decision.
