H.E. Archbishop Edwin O'Brien, Archbishop of Baltimore, has posted his weekly article to his column , " Thoughts on Our Church ." This is just a brief look at what he has to say: Each year at the conclusion of the Maryland General Assembly’s 90-day session, a list of the session’s “best-sellers” – the bills most inquired about by the general public – is published by the Legislative Services Department. This session’s best-sellers include two measures which add a new term to our health and tax laws: “domestic partners.” The term refers to any two people who are not related by marriage or blood, who affirm they are in a “relationship of mutual interdependence,” and who demonstrate their interdependence by jointly renting a car, leasing an apartment, or opening a checking account. Same-sex couples can claim the designation; so can unmarried opposite-sex couples. The public’s interest in the two bills was reflected in news coverage during the General Assembly session. Pu...

Senate Bill 566 and Senate Bill 597 to take effect July 1 Dear Advocates, In the last few weeks, you've heard from us requesting your assistance in contacting Gov. Martin O'Malley and asking him to veto two bills that undermine the legal status of marriage in Maryland.

Senate Bills 566 and 597, which create a definition of "domestic partnership" in law and treat those relationships as marriages in parts of the state's health and tax statutes, will take effect on July 1. Below you will find a statement the Conference issued this morning in response to the governor's signing of these bills. Please take a few moments to read about the Church's deep concern ov...
