Bills have been introduced and reintroduced each year. The only bill to ever pass was the 1996 Defense of Marriage Act ("DOMA"). Other bills introduced include ones intended to repeal DOMA, to provide benefits to same-sex spouses of US Military personnel, to permit Americans to sponsor their same-sex spouses for residency, and to amend the US Constitution to ban same-sex marriage.

How many bills are introduced in congress during a term?
About 10,000 bills per session have been introduced to congress in the past fifty years. There have been 111 Congressional sessions so far, about one every two years. Since the United States Constitution went in effect on March 4th, 1789, Congress's first full year of action was 1790. It has, therefore; been about 210 years since the first bill was introduced. Even considering that there were far less introduced bills in the 18th and 19th centuries, as well as the fact that laws concerning the passing of bills have changed, there have still been 100s of thousands of bills proposed since Congress started active duty.
