Congrats to Liechtenstein!

More good news out of Europe as the beautiful alpine nation of Liechtenstein, located between Switzerland and Austria, approved the Partnerschaftsgesetz, or Partnership Bill.

The bill, which confers the rights and benefits of civil unions to same-sex couples, passed parliament with unanimous approval on March 21st, and will take effect September 1, 2011. 

Liechtenstein is 80% Catholic.

Congrats to Liechtenstein!  We now look forward to seeing Luxembourg pass its same-sex marriage bill within this year.
