Gay Marriage Bill to be Introduced in Washington DC on October 6th

Councilmember David Catania told a group of gay and lesbian activists on Sept. 30 that he intends to introduce his long-awaited same-sex marriage bill to the D.C. Council on Tuesday, Oct. 6. Catania, D-At Large, was joined by a handful of other councilmembers expected to support the bill, including Phil Mendelson, D-At Large, and Michael Brown, I-At Large. Roughly 200 activists were on hand for the surprise announcement. Mendelson's judiciary committee has jurisdiction over the bill.
