Nicky Grist Testifies in Congress -- and could use your support concerning domestic partner benefits!

Federal employees: want domestic partner benefits?

I'd like to talk with federal employees about the Domestic Partnership Benefits and Obligations Act. It currently proposes to give same-sex partners the same benefits as spouses. This is a good idea, but my organization believes all federal employees should be able to add one adult to their benefit plan, or at least it should cover different-sex as well as same-sex partners.  For more detail on this position, check out my written testimony to Congress ( http://federalworkforce.oversight.house.gov/documents/20090709081238.pdf ).

Do federal employees agree with us?  How can we help them speak up?

Thanks so much,

Nicky
