On Tap Magazine: As promised, nearly certain to be approved, gay marriage bill is expected to be introduced Tuesday in Washington D.C., the bill's sponsor, councilman David A. Catania (I-At Large), announced Wednesday. The openly gay lawmaker revealed his plans during a speech to 150 gay activists at the Call for Action Convocation for Marriage Equality, a discussion on how to secure the right to marry for gay and lesbian couples in the District. “We are going to do it now,” Catania told the crowd, The Washington Post reported. “We are going to do it now, not for ourselves, but for the young people who are 20-years-old, 16-years-old, 13-years-old.” The bill, titled the Religious Freedom and Civil Marriage Amendment Act of 2009, would change the definition of marriage to say that “marriage is the legally recognized union of two people” and “any person who otherwise meets the eligibility requirements … may marry any other eligible person regardless of gender.”
