That's right, 23 anti-gay laws were introduced in the Texas Legislature this year and none of them passed. The best that could happen in this conservative red state was a toothless anti-gay marriage resolution which squeaked by in the Texas Senate 21-10.

Senate Passes Anti-Gay Marriage Resolution

Following an emotional floor debate, the Texas Senate passed a resolution Wednesday evening reaffirming the state's opposition to same-sex marriage, an action taken as it became clear that a bill to prevent such marriages in Texas was dead.

The body's 20 Republican senators and state Sen. Eddie Lucio Jr., D-Brownsville, voted for Senate Resolution 1028, authored by state Sen. Kelly Hancock, R-North Richland Hills, that affirmed "the present definition" of marriage in the state.

“This resolution is intended by those of us who signed it to demonstrate that we continue to support what the people of this state have expressed," state Sen. Jane Nelson, R-Flower Mound, said.

State Sen. Juan "Chuy" Hinojosa was among several Democrats who criticized the amendment. Hinojosa suggested Republicans were discriminating against gay people, including his own daughter.
