Thursday, June 14th at 1 pm EST the Massachusetts legislature will meet in a constitutional convention to debate and vote on an amendment that would strip same-sex couples of the right to marry.
The amendment needs only 50 votes (25% of legislature) for approval. If approved, it will go on the ballot in November 2008.
