Angering gay rights supporters, Rhode Island Gov. Donald Carcieri Tuesday vetoed a bill that would give same-sex couples the right to plan the funerals of their deceased partners.

Calling the bill a “disturbing trend” toward the erosion of heterosexual marriage, Carcieri said the decision should be left up to the voters.
