Two bills were introduced 12/19/07 that would provide domestic partner benefits to Federal employees.  They are bill numbers, HR 4838 and S 2521.  The Senate bill was introduced by Sen. Joe Lieberman and two co-sponsors that you would recognize are Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton and Sen. Barack Obama.  This bill uses tax payer money to pay benefits for a lifestyle that we do not support.  Please contact both your Senators and Representative and ask them to vote "NO" on these bills.
