The Hawaii House of Representatives yesterday passed a civil unions bill by a vote of 31-19. This comes on the heels of the Senate’s passage of the same basic bill last month. Because the House made some changes to the bill, it must come up for a vote in the Hawaii Senate again, which may happen this week. After that, the bill makes its way to Governor Neil Abercrombie, who, as a civil unions supporter, is expected to sign it.
