Amazing!

The Dail in the Irish Republic has passed a bill which recognizes civil partnerships between same-sex couples!

Justice Minister Dermot Ahern says:

"Our society has changed substantially in recent decades. While marriage is more popular than ever, other forms of relationships have become increasingly common; they create some difficulties in the legal system and require in our law a measure of recognition and of protection."

The bill was supported by all parties in the Dail and it is expected to become a law in the fall.

YES!
