It still amazes me that employers can and do discriminate against sexual orientation. As a supporter of equal rights and over 20 years experience in human resourses, I echo the "good job" thanks to the North Carolina corporate leaders who have recognized the need for domestic partner benefits. Having moved to NC from Washington, DC where equal rights and employment discrimination against gays was outlawed many years ago, I have seen discrimination against the elderly and gays finally start to get some attention in North Carolina...we still have a long way to go.
