The bill was passed by Congress by a vote of 85-14 in the Senate[1] and a vote of 342-67 in the House of Representatives,[2] and was signed into law by President Bill Clinton on September 21, 1996.
Yeah, there was a Republican majority in both the House and Senate in 96, but, not THAT big of one...
Of course, as I've said before, having Bill Clinton pass a law in defense of marriage is kind of like having Teddy Kennedy teach advanced life saving...:lfao:
(ditto most of thos Congressmen and Senators, from both sides of the aisle...)
