When civil unions were created in Vermont eight years ago, they were the result of heated and prolonged debate that started with the question of how to guarantee equal rights to same-sex couples. Now a new commission has released a report that studies whether that equality has been achieved. Tom Little is the chair of the Commission on Family Recognition and Protection. Craig Bensen is the President of Take It to the People, and is a pastor at the Cambridge United Church, a group that supports traditional marriage and wants a statewide referendum on the issue of same-sex marriage. They spoke with VPR's Jane Lindholm about the issue.
