Editor's Message
Nearly 1/3 of the states recognize same-sex marriage and extend to employees in such relationships the same rights and benefits as opposite-sex married couples. Additionally, in several states, rulings addressing the legality of same-sex marriage are pending in the courts. The law has been rapidly evolving here so we've created a Same-Sex Marriage hot topic page with resources to help you stay current and comply with the myriad employment issues arising from this trend.
