Civil Unions in New Jersey

Civil Unions became available for same sex couples in New Jersey as of 2007.

Many hoped that as of February 2012, New Jersey would replace Civil Unions with Same Sex Marriage, after both Houses of the New Jersey Legislature passed a Gay Marriage Bill, but Governor Chris Christie vetoed the Bill and it does not appear that there are enough votes to override the veto.
