Same Sex Marriage in Maine & (sorta) DC

I seem to be witting a lot of these posts in the last couple of weeks. :)

Maine has just passed a same sex marriage bill today. Like Vermont, it passed through the legislative process. It was signed by the governor this morning. So now we have 5 states with same sex marriage. (Iowa, Connecticut, Massachusetts, Vermont, and Maine)

Washington DC recently passed a bill that would require the district to recognize same sex marriages performed in other states. Not quite as good as doing it at home, but given the unique legal position DC holds - Congress has veto rights on all of its laws - its still a major event.
