Colorado Civil Unions Bill Gains Some GOP Support

State Sen. Pat Steadman, D-Denver, on Monday introduced a bill to establish civil unions in Colorado, creating a state-sanctioned relationship for same-sex couples. And because the legislation debuted on Valentine's Day, a supporter of the bill dressed as Cupid delivered construction-paper "links of love" to legislators during the lunch hour, meant to demonstrate support from around the state for the proposal.

"Civil unions will allow committed couples to share in the responsibilities and protections in Colorado law that most families take for granted," Steadman said. "Our society is stronger when we promote personal responsibility and taking care of one another, and civil unions do just that."
