    • Key West, FL offers domestic partner benefits

      This week the Key West City Commission in Key West, FL voted in a measure giving people in domestic partnerships more rights. 

      The Equal Benefits Ordinance (EBO) will require vendors in the city to “provide employees’ domestic partners with benefits equal to those offered to spouses of married employees.” This is a big deal for Florida, where no state law exists to protect LGBT people from discrimination at work. 

      Baby steps.
