REINING IN THE TRANSGRESSIVES:
Federal benefits won't extend to domestic partners under DOMA ruling (Josh Hicks, July 8, 2013, Washington Post)
The Obama administration will not extend federal-worker benefits to domestic partners under the Supreme Court ruling that overturned part of the Defense of Marriage Act, meaning the government will treat civil unions differently than legal same-sex marriages.The Office of Personnel Management made that announcement in a series of memos to federal benefits administrators and insurance carriers, saying couples who are not legally married "will remain ineligible for most federal benefits programs."
