Rep. Proposes To Girlfriend On House Floor
Legislators Vote 106-0 In Favor Of Marriage


TALLAHASSEE, Fla. -- Now this is truly a legislative proposal.

Rep. Baxter Troutman surprised his girlfriend, Rebecca Carney, with a marriage proposal Wednesday on the floor of the House.

Carney, clearly caught off guard, said, "Yes" in front of the entire House and a gallery of onlookers.

But this being the Legislature, it wasn't official just because Carney agreed. A broader consensus had to be forged before the final proposal could go forward.

A resolution was read on the floor proclaiming the proposal, and House Speaker Marco Rubio called for a vote.
