Wyoming residents are one step closer to voting on a constitutional ban on marriage equality now that the senate has passed a measure on Thursday calling for the ballot initiative.

Sen. Curt Meier's resolution to allow voters to decide on the fate of gay and lesbian couples was approved 20-10, according to the Associated Press. The resolution would specify whether the state would recognize same-sex unions, as the current law is not as explicit as those in other states with full constitutional bans on marriage equality. The resolution will now go to the house of representatives for approval.
