NCGA to Hear Marriage Amendment Monday, (1 of 3 versions)

The NC Senate will start debating the marriage amendment Monday - without telling the public about it. http://t.co/8vEtnuI

But a new version of the bill leaked to WRAL Friday night shows the bill the committee will take up Monday has absolutely nothing to do with term limits. The new H61 is an amended version of the constitutional ban on same-sex marriage.

Berger's chief of staff, Jim Blaine, said late tonight there was no intention to deceive the public or hide the bill. He is earning that paycheck this week..

Events on Monday and Tuesday at NCGA Halifax Mall, Will see a few Rallies.

THE North Carolina Value Coalition will hold a Protect Marriage Rally, from 10:30 am to 1:30 pm (55 rvsp) (please note that there was a pro-gay marriage planned for the same day, from 12 to 2 pm, but it was canceled)

On Tuesday, Equality NC will hold there Marriage Equality Rally (1034 rsvp)..

Equality NC has organized 9 Candle light Vigils across the state.
