Due to DoMA, US federal employees can get partly funded pet insurnce, but they can not get insurance for gay/lesbian partner.
While Obama has repeatedly made promises to repeal DoMA {and DADT, and pass ENDA} he and his administration are on their 4th defense of DoMA. In previous defenses, they said that gays do not deserve marriage because gay relationships were no better than incest, bestiality and pedophilia.
With friends like Obama, who needs enemies.

Reasons why I like Canada. For years issues of that nature have never been an issue. In fact, not only do all insurance converage companies acknowledge and honour a same-sex partner benefit, but I am living proof that it is legally permissible to marry an individual of the same sex (at least in Canada).
