in news •  7 years ago 


The Upper House of Australia, Senate passed a bill today, clearing the way of gay marriage and refusing to pressure the conservatives to increase the protection of religious freedom. In view of the consent of most MPs to honor "the desire of Australian citizens", there is a hope that this bill will be passed smoothly in the lower house of the House before Christmas. Australian citizens voted in favor of gay marriage in a postal ballot recently.
"We are part of the celebration, inclusiveness, respect and part of the celebration, when the Senate accepted the acceptance of our LGBTQ brothers and sisters," said Penny Wong, a member of the gay leader of the highest profile of Australia and Labor Party member Penny Wong. The announcement is made. "Penny said," This bill says that you are the one who has accepted you so much as Australian citizens, this Parliament, this country.
Your love is not less than anyone and you are not less than anyone. "Senators passed the bill with 43 votes against 12 after rejecting the demand for enhancing religious conservation.
These protections allow religious ministers to refuse gay marriage. Anna Brown, of the Equality campaign, said, "It is the victory of efforts of supporters of equality over a decade.
