INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — Indiana House Speaker Brian Bosma says lawmakers are taking their time deciding how they’ll vote on a proposed amendment that would ban gay marriage.
The Indianapolis Republican said Wednesday that a vote by the House Judiciary Committee could happen next week. Members of that panel had planned a vote Monday, but delayed it following hours of emotional testimony.
Bosma said he has not counted the votes on the committee, but believes any decision would be a narrow one.

Republican Gov. Mike Pence asked lawmakers to vote on the issue this year, during his State of the State address.
