Bad news on two fronts in the battle for legal recognition of same-sex relationships today. First, a bill that would allow same-sex couples in Hawaii to enter into civil unions died in that state’s senate. Second, the governor of Vermont has indicated that he will veto the same-sex marriage bill that has been making its way through that state’s legislature. The bill could still become law despite a veto; however, it would apparently require a 2/3 vote in each chamber of the Vermont legislature.
