2. A White House conference on bullying gets underway at 10:30 a.m. (Eastern Time). Fort Worth councilman Joel Burns is there. The president will announce a new website called Stop Bullying to help combat the problem.
3. House Speaker John Boehner announced today that the House of Representative’s counsel will defend the so-called Defense of Marriage Act. The Washington Post reported that former Speaker Nancy Pelosi said that defending the law would be lengthy and expensive.

Dear outraged, Sabla,
Pelosi cares because her job is to look out for the American people who want the government to create jobs and address the deficit. Defending DOMA will cost us money. Legalizing same-sex marriage creates jobs. Wedding photographers, caterers, food, alcohol, decorators, registry gifts, clothing for everyone in the ceremony, rings, flowers, DJs and musicians at the reception, honeymoon costs like plane tickets, hotel stays, vacation packages…. There is no logical fiscal argument for DOMA.
