After a long hearing that produced heated and emotional testimony Thursday, an Assembly committee voted along party lines in favor of a bill from Democrats that would allow gay couples to marry in New Jersey. The bill still faces votes in both houses of the Legislature, with the Senate vote set for Feb. 13. Republican Gov. Chris Christie has promised to veto the Marriage Equality and Religious Exemption Act if it reaches his desk. The bill advanced by a 5-2 vote. http://on.cpsj.com/ycsYjN
