Clerk, please lock the machine…

With all four of Portsmouth's representatives (Canario, Edwards, Finn, and Gallison) voting in favor, the RI House passed marriage equality bill H5015 this afternoon following a series of spirited floor speeches. Full vote tally here.

Thanks to our Portsmouth delegation for being on the right side of history, and thanks to everyone who has worked so hard for these past 16 years to get us to this point.

Now on to the Senate and let's win there.
