Compromise brings same-sex marriage one step closer to legal in New Hampshire

The Boston Globe is reporting that New Hampshire House and Senate negotiators on Friday agreed on changes to the bill that would make New Hampshire the sixth American state to allow gay marriage. Governor John Lynch reportedly approves of the changes to the new version, which is expected to be voted on Wednesday 3 June 2009.

Currently, same-sex marriages are legal in Massachusetts, Connecticut, and Iowa, with Maine and Vermont due to begin marrying same-sex couples in September 2009.

Fingers crossed, again.
