Washington State To Get Partner Registry

I'm at Dunn Bros. on University and 280 right now, waiting to go blog the Capitol. I'm across the street from Hubbard Broadcasting (KSTP TV, radio, etc.). The Hubbards are the largest contributor of money to the Republican party in Minnesota. I think it's interesting when those responsible for providing the citizenry with the unbiased information they need to make important civic decisions hold such a "distinction."

365 Gay has a fresh story this morning reporting that the Washington state legislature has now passed a "domestic partner registry" bill that will be signed by the Democratic governor. Yay! It's not even marriage light; it's civil union light. It's not even "back of the bus;" it's the running boards, but at least it's some needed positive movement and more than we're likely to see in Minnesota anytime soon with that fascist prick in the governor's office.
