(UPDATED) Obama to Extend Domestic Partnership Benefits to Federal Employees

When he signs an executive order on Wednesday evening. Our cover story on the backround leading up to and impact of such a decision is here. Details on the Executive Order when I get them.

UPDATED: The New York Times says the order won't include access to coverage under the Federal Employees Health Benefits Program. The full list of benefits will be released along with the order. But FEHBP is the big one, and they seem to be waiting on the passage of the Domestic Partnership Benefits and Obligations Act for that one.
