Gov. Rick Snyder Signs Domestic Partner Benefits Ban Into Law
Public employees, including state and local government workers and public school teachers, will no longer be allowed to extend their health care benefits to domestic partners.
What state is this? Michigan? Too many stories being posted with vague references to state and local governments.. you need to specify in the headline or first reference which one you're talking about.
Well, to be fair, heterosexuals who are "domestic partners" (i.e. Common Law marriage) do not receive healthcare benefits, so why should homosexuals receive them? They aren't married. I have no issue with homosexual couples receiving benefits if they are legally married.
