Cleveland City Council adopts domestic partner benefits ordinance

Breaking news from Equality Ohio:

Just minutes ago, the Cleveland City Council (led by Councilman Joe Cimperman [a board member of Cleveland Special Events Corporation, the host of Gay Games 9]) unanimously passed a domestic partner benefits ordinance for Cleveland city workers. While the ordinance has some disappointing compromise limitations (as to who qualifies and the employee contribution), it is a step forward. Equality Ohio will continue to advocate for full equality in Cleveland and throughout Ohio.
