Indiana
House Speaker Brian Bosma made the unusual move of directing the
proposed constitutional ban on same-sex marriage from the House
Judiciary Committee to the House Elections and Apportionment Committee
today even though the former has already held a hearing with hours of public testimony.Why?
The bill is stalling in the Judiciary Committee for lack of support and the new committee is more conservative and contains at least one Democrat who says he supports a ban, the AP reports:
Bosma had promised publicly to let the
ban run a normal course in the Legislature but took a more forceful role
in advancing it amid concerns that it would die in committee.
