I just read this. I don't know if it's ironic, or stupid or what, but I work for NYS & "domestic partners", gay OR straight, are entitled to employee's family benefits.
What's the sticking point? What's the state's reasoning? I mean, I read their reasoning, but it still makes no sense to me.
It's OK for a domestic partner to receive state government benefits if their partner is employed by the state. But oh no, you CAN'T get married, the world would end.
