From Bay Windows:

    In a voice vote the Massachusetts state Senate passed a bill to repeal an antiquated state law that has blocked most same-sex couples from out of state from marrying in Massachusetts.

    There was brief debate about the bill to repeal the statute, known as the 1913 law, after the year in which it was passed.

has blocked most same-sex couples from out of state from marrying in Massachusetts.

In fact, it worked to stop almost all out of state couples from doing that, not just gay ones.
