Washington state legislators on Wednesday took one final step closer to becoming the seventh state in the nation in which same sex marriage is legal. 

The Washington House passed the measure in a 55-43 vote after the state Senate approved it last week. The Democratic governor is expected to sign the bill next week, 90 days after which same sex couples will be able to wed.
