After a mere five weeks of being enacted, there is talk of having the NH gay marriage law repealed. However, there are many who will not let the NH gay marriage law go down without a fight. The Boston Herald reports that a New Hampshire House Judiciary Committee is advising against the repeal. The Judiciary Committee has advised that the House shoot down a constitutional amendment that attempts to define marriage an institution between a man and a woman, versus between two individuals.
Republicans in New Hampshire have been very vocal about their displeasure over the new law. As we wrote about previously in FindLaw’s Law and Daily Life Blog, New Hampshire state Rep. Jordan Ulery, made it very clear that he was against same sex marriages: “A man and a woman together create a family where individuals of the same gender cannot create a family.” For more information, please visit our Related Resources links.
