Although Minnesota’s bill to allow a general vote on marriage for gay and lesbian couples passed Saturday 70-62, the testimony before the legislature was passionate, including this speech from veteran and Republican Rep. John Kriesel.
Republican Minnesota legislator speaks against marriage vote

Your headline is wrong. Rep. Kriesel is FOR marriage, not against it.
He is against a public vote to put official discrimination against a segment of upstanding, tax-paying citizens in the state constitution.
Thanks for pointing that out, celdd. I seemed to have cut off the end of the headline. Fixed now.
