Separate But Unequal, redux: Civil Unions or Domestic Partnerships, but no Marriage

These are the U.S. states which have some sort of protection for same-sex couples but not full marriage.

  • Colorado (constitutional amendment banning same-sex marriage)
  • Maryland (no constitutional amendment, but law prohibits same-sex marriage)
  • Nevada (constitutional amendment banning same-sex marriage)
  • Oregon (constitutional amendment banning same-sex marriage)
  • Washington (constitutional amendment banning same-sex marriage)
  • Wisconsin (constitutional amendment banning same-sex marriage)
Is your state on this list?  If so, you may see more commitment ceremonies and should get ready to reach the LGBT market.
