Illinois State Representative Greg Harris and State Senator Heather Steans wasted no time yesterday in pushing for the freedom to marry. The lawmakers introduced HB 110 and SB 110, the Religious Freedom and Marriage Fairness Act.

The introduction of the bill on the first day of the new Illinois legislative session is yet another sign that it's a matter of when, and not if, marriage happens in Illinois.
