Archive for January, 2011The financial and social benefits afforded to individuals who can legally marry vs. same-sex couples who cannot legally marry in FloridaTuesday, January 11th, 2011In early February 2011, the State of Illinois became one of a handful of States to grant same-sex couples a broad array of legal rights and responsibilities similar to those of marriage. By the end of the year another four states, including New York and California, may well also end the exclusion of same-sex couples from marriage. Unfortunately, Florida’s treatment of same-sex couples is dated, even as a majority of Americans nationwide now support the freedom to marry for same-sex couples. |
