Ferrandino's HB1260 moves forward
HB1260, Rep. MarK Ferrandino's (pictured) designated beneficiary bill is moving forward (by a vote of seven to three, yay!), with some conservatives saying that it "dilutes marriage." According to the Denver Post, Rep. Bob Gardner is the bill's main opponent.
"What we're doing with this bill is creating de facto civil unions in Colorado," the Post quotes him as saying.
They have set up such a Catch-22: you shouldn't have certain rights unless you are married, but you can't get married so don't even ask.
