Gay ‘marriage’ reversed by Bermuda Legislature

HAMILTON, Bermuda — The Bermuda Legislature has outlawed same-sex “marriage” only months after the Bermuda Supreme Court approved such unions there, making the island the first nation to reverse gay “marriage.”
The Bermuda Legislature approved the Domestic Partnership Act after a public referendum in favor of traditional marriage, effectively reversing the Bermuda Supreme Court ruling of May 2017. Bermuda Gov. John Rankin signed the act into law Feb. 7.

The new law denies marriage to same-sex couples but gives both gay and heterosexual couples the right to enter into partnerships with certain legal rights previously held only by heterosexual married couples. (BP)
