Vermont state Sen. John Campbell says he’s going to introduce a marriage bill when the Legislature convenes in January.

Campbell says marriage is an important issue for many Vermonters, but he calls it a political land mine.

Since 2000 Vermont has allowed same couples to be joined in civil unions.

In April, a commission of legislative leaders formed to study whether Vermont should go beyond civil unions and enact marriage issued a report supporting marriage, but stopped short of recommending such a step.
