Oh, wait... This IS North Carolina... The Speaker may have decided that "The Party of Small Government" trying to impose a "State Religion" was a bit too far, but you can't leave those clowns unattended and without adult supervision for too long...

North Carolina 'Healthy Marriage Act' Would Set Two-Year Waiting Period For Divorce, Require Counseling
Two North Carolina Republican lawmakers are hoping to make it more difficult for married couples in the state to get divorced.
State Sens. Austin Allran (R) and Sen. Warren Daniel (R) introduced the "Healthy Marriage Act" last week, a bill that would require couples seeking to end their marriages to first undergo a two-year waiting period -- during which the couple could live together. The current waiting period is one year, during which the couple must have "lived separate and apart."

"Now, more than ever, the illusions of division threaten our very existence. We all know the truth: more connects us than separates us. But in times of crisis the wise build bridges, while the foolish build barriers. We must find a way to look after one another as if we were one single tribe.” -King T'Challa, Black Panther
The truth is incontrovertible. Malice may attack it. ignorance may deride it, but in the end, there it is. ~Winston Churchill
