One step closer....
An interesting side note is that one of Hawaii's openly Lesbian representatives voted no on the bill yesterday, saying that she is not sure it is what the people "really" want.

The house is currently reading their opposition to the 19 (so far) amendments they made to the bill, and then there will be a final vote. I was watching the live stream from one of the Hawaiian news stations...the opposition is doing everything they can to derail the bill.
I'll be out later, i hope blackboot comes in to post the final vote.
