The Roll Call to weaken H.B. 2381, the Marriage Protection Amendment, in the Senate Judiciary Committee is below.  The language is now “Only a marriage between one man and one woman shall be valid or recognized as a marriage in this Commonwealth.”  Remember this clears the path for civil unions to be legalized in Pennsylvania.

Yes – Lisa Boscola
Yes – Jay Costa
Yes –  Jane Earll
Yes –  Robert Jubelirer  (Senate Pro-Tempore is a voting ex-officio member of all Senate committees – Note: Senator Jubelirer is co-sponsor of S.B. 1084 which contains the exact amendment language as the original H.B. 2381!)
Yes – Charles Lemmond
Yes – Michael O’Pake
Yes – Michael  Stack
Yes – J. Barry Stout
Yes – Mary Jo White

No – John Gordner
No – Stewart Greenleaf
No – Jane Orie
No – Jeff Piccola
No – John Rafferty

The weakened version of H.B. 2381 was then voted out of committee by a vote of 13 to 1 . . . .  only Senator Orie voted against it.  H.B. 2381 now goes to the full Senate for a vote.  Remember this amendment is not strong enough to protect traditional marriage because it does not deal with civil unions.  Fake marriage or civil unions is a stepping stone that will be used by homosexual activists to get same-sex marriage legalized in Pennsylvania.
