evan, what do you think?this is wonderful. it's a win/win win. it's a win for families, a win for new york, it's a win for our country. it's even a win for the people who today are uncomfortable or uncertain and wrestling this because they're going to see that it took nothing away from anyone else when the family across the street is a little better off. and now we can turn together as americans, as new yorkers, to really working on the things that we really need to tackle together, the problems that are really facing all of us in these tough economic times. but of course we also now have many other states where this discrimination has to end. we have to end federal marriage discrimination against the legally married couples. and we have to work together to make our country better. but today was a big day for our country and for america and for our families. >> richard sakaritis, you heard a state senator ball earlier on this program who voted against this but whose biggest concerns really were beyond persona

there's a song called tim evans-- the ballad of tim evans, which was written by ewan maccoll.oday as it was in 1961. when i learned this land is your land, i felt passionate about it. and there was always an undercurrent, which was becoming an overcurrent, of political positions to take. there were--there were rallies to go to. there were songs to sing at the rallies. i didn't always sing political songs, by the way. it might be--you might find me singing turn, turn, turn, even as likely as singing a song like the wonderful it isn't nice, which was written by malvina reynolds about protesting. ♪ it isn't nice to block the doorway. ♪ ♪ it isn't nice to go to jail. ♪ ♪ there are nicer ways to do it. ♪ this was a gray-haired 62-year-old woman who wrote this song-- malvina reynolds. ♪ but the nice ways always fail. ♪ so we had, sometimes, songs that had a passionate stance. but quite often, there were songs which had a spiritual stance. and of course, the whole movement to voter registration among the african-american community i was quite involved with. and i went to mississippi

what are you hearing, evan, in terms of the actual vote?peful that they are going to bring it to a vote. certainly new yorkers are clamoring for a vote. thousands of thousands of people have talked to their legislators, called their legislators. senator skellos, the majority leader has repeatedly said he believes there should be a vote. >> if they decide not to vote on it at all, can they do that? decide not to vote and go home? >> they can do that. the governor also has the power to call them back. and governor cuomo has said he's cautiously optimistic that there is going to be a vote. and he is very hopeful like me that the senate is going to do the right thing, what new yorkers want. >> this could be at 4:00 a.m. >> it could be a long night. >> there's no limit on when it could be. >> there is no limit on when it could be. and the sooner the better. >> anderson, let's be clear here. governor cuomo can call the senate back into session. but he cannot make them vote on this bill. he cannot make them call up the bill. this is entirely up to

joining me now, senior legal analyst jeffrey due bin and executive director of -- evan, why the delay whether or not it passes, but why not just let it come up to a vote? >> well, we're very hopful there will be a vote. we're calling on the senate to move for a vote because we feel like we've made the case. thousands and thousands of new yorkers, democrats as well as republicans, business leaders as well as labor unions, even professional athletes, as well as individual people and their families and their loved ones have contacted their legislators, have called the senators, have visited the senators and have spoken out and actually 58% of new yorkers support same sex marriage. >> do you think you have enough votes among the legislators? >> we're very hopeful that if the senate brings it to a vote, which i hope will happen very soon, that we will have a happy day for new york. >> jeff, as look at this, why is it taking so long to come to a vote one way or another? >> i think this is a hard vote for a lot of the republicans. the republican party institutionally and in new york state ha

with me now is evan wolfson executive director for of freedom to marry.org and senior analyst jeffreyn. jeffrey, answer what that state senator was saying about why change -- he's stuck on the word. he's stuck on changing the definition of the word "marriage". >> i would say that marriage is not defined by who's denied it. when gay people are able to share in the freedom to marry because they are in love, because they have made a commitment in life and they want a commitment in law, that doesn't change marriage. it doesn't take anything away from anyone else. it doesn't use up marriage. marriage is there for all of us to share. host of us who have made a commitment. and what gay people want is to be able to participate in that legal commitment. and the other thing i would say is that some states have tried to come up with alternative, parallel, other mechanisms. civil union partnership. and right across the river in new jersey where they have civil union, the official state commission that was appointed by the legislature and the governor to study how is civil union working reported t

evan, welcome. what's going on overhead to create such high temperatures in such a big chunk of the country? >> well, ray, there's a couple different reasons what's going on. number one, we can just tell in the short term there's just a massive area of high pressure, a big ridge in the upper atmosphere that extends from the east coast all the way back into the southwestern states. and it's just been pumping hot and dry air out of mexico. so we know that that's the reason why this is occurring. something else is going on. we certainly know that something greater is happening. there is a greater percentage of warm years that have occurred recently than would be the normal distribution. so whether that is human induced or whether it's part of a natural cycle, i don't think it really matters. i think we need to be prudent in how we move forward in the future and really think about the things we do that might affect the climatement but certainly this hot weather across the southern part of the country is

especially when it failed in the new york state senate by a wide margin just two years ago. >> evan,ems like the final sticking points have been over religious exemption or religious concerns. what are the concerns? and i mean, there are legitimate religious concerns, some churches don't want to be forced to marry gay people. >> well, no church should be forced to marry any couple they don't want to. a church is as free to not marry a gay couple as it is to not marry an interfaith couple. nobody can force the catholic church to marry divorced catholics. but the catholic church, of course, can't tell the city clerk not to issue a license, a marriage license from the government to that divorced catholic couple. so everybody agrees that the bill, like any bill has to have a significant balance between non-discrimination on the one hand and religious freedom on the other. the good news here is that the governor, majority leader and others have been today saying they actually believe the language looks good, that this is a gap or a question that can really be resolved. and i don't actuall

evan, simply because this is one of those rare days when we get a glimpse inside two senators at work, sometimes even at sleep in the senate chamber. i've seen that happen. how far do think we are going in this four-year mandate of this government in discussing changes to the senate? >> i think you said it best, peter. once you start talking about is, there are two levels. there is the political level, as the ceremony starts. you see the limousine. the base want some action. this is an all longstanding call for 1994. they want to abolish the senate, but at the very least term limits. it seems possible. they may be able to get through it without a constitutional challenge. it has to do with quebec feeling a wide representation in the senate. once you geti into the complicated world of constitutes a business, and nobody can predict the outcome. is that here, peter, there will be something on the political angle about term limits and that will be a modest goals of the base get something. >> well, there he is, the governor general, david johnson is arriving on parliament hill for what wil
