Well, I hope the Gay couple is okay with this. At least Lander’s least favorite senator was on their side.
CHEYENNE — The Wyoming Senate Wednesday voted 21-8 in favor of a bill to ban recognition of same-sex marriages that are legal in other states.
Voting for Senate File 13 were 20 Republicans and one Democrat, Sen. Bill Vasey of Rawlins.
Voting no were Sens. Cale Case, R-Lander; Ken Decaria, D-Evanston; John Hastert, D-Green River; Rae Lynn Job, D-Rock Springs; Mike Massie, D-Laramie; Jayne Mockler and Kathryn Sessions, D-Cheyenne; and Michael Von Flatern, R-Gillette.
The bill now goes to the House. A story in Wednesday’s Star-Tribune included incorrect information about the bill’s next step.
At least the good senator from Lander can tell his gay friends that he went to bat for them.
