He's for Licenses

Though the Governor has already vowed to veto SB 60, Senator Gil Cedillo won't let up the pressure. Today, he praised the Los Angeles Daily News for an editorial calling for Schwarzenegger to sign the bill.

"Governor Schwarzenegger has broken too many promises to the people of California including our teachers, our nurses and our firefighters,” said Senator Cedillo. “The Governor made a commitment to work out a resolution in support Senate Bill 60 so now I call on him not only talk the talk but walk the walk. I urge the Governor to set aside political agendas and special interests and keep his word by signing Senate Bill 60 into law.”

Not likely to happen, but Cedillo is unlikely to relent. During the tense and emotional gay marriage debate, Cedillo rose and brought laughter to the room when he said that it was no surprise "he was for licenses"--marriage licenses. He went on to compare gay marriage to his drivers license bill, which would appear to have little in common, except for a likely gubernatorial veto.
