"We,...", must support alternative families

The Issue

A recent poll showed that 69% of Americans approve either marriage or civil unions between committed persons of the same sex. Even so, the federal government does not recognize such legal arrangements.  This creates many disadvantages for couples when they pay income taxes or want to move out of the state in which their partnership is legally recognized.
