Report on same-sex marriage due in April

A legislative committee charged with hearing Vermonters' views on same-sex marriage will release its long-awaited report next month, but members are tight-lipped as to what its final contents will be.

The report from the Vermont Commission on Family Recognition will likely be released the week of April 15, according to its chair, former state representative Tom Little of Shelburne.

Little, a Republican who shepherded the civil unions bill through the House eight years ago, said Tuesday that the report will outline the current legal framework around same-sex marriage and the comments received at eight public hearings across the state over the last six months.See   Report on same-sex marriage due in April @ Barre Montpelier Times Argus, VT
