Oregon Gov. Calls For Gay Civil Unions
http://www.365gay.com/newscon05/04/041305oregonUnions.htm

Oregon Gov. Ted Kulongoski on Wednesday said he will press the legislature to approve a civil unions bill this year to give same-sex couples some of the rights bestowed on married couples.

His announcement comes one day before the Oregon Supreme Court is to rule on the legality of some 3,000 marriages of same-sex couples performed last year in Multnomah County. (story)

The state refused to register the marriages and the issue headed to court.


did he take a stand on the marriage amendment last year?
