Moratorium holds

Bills, rhetoric and supporters were lining up on both sides of the cultural divide re: gay rights and LGBT issues. The moratorium represents a decision not to allow a gratuitous ideological election-year food fight. Instead, legislators opted to encourage the newly emerging civil discourse on these polarizing issues to continue. It's our hope that as we continue to think and discuss like adults, solutions will emerge that work for everyone. It's worth a shot.

After caucus this afternoon the Senate President Michael Waddoups and Representative Christine Johnson discussed the new moratorium agreement.

Two articles:
Rosmary Winters: New compromise emerges on gay rights

Lisa Roche: Lawmakers do away with gay rights bills
