Im guessing here, but I think it was just what they could do at the time to help get people insured who were in same sex relationships. My company is doing away with DP recognition now that same sex marriages are recognized, which I expect to be the trend moving forward. Personally I dont really care who marrys who and how we define it, let them all be miserable.
I see no Statutes covering an option. "Oregon: Domestic partnerships are available for same-sex couples only (though all long-term unmarried couples may enter into private domestic partnership agreements to divide assets in the event of a breakup). https://www.forbes.com/sites/beltwa...-avoid-the-marriage-tax-penalty/#15ad43c44d43
That is interesting but not surprising. There are 50 states all with different leadership and different ideas, some are bound to get it a little off. Now that same sex marriages are legal I expect this to fade away and might only stay relevant for asset division situations.
I see article all over the place and @Denny Crane post of Wiki saying this and that. But the Oregon Revised Statutes, updated through 2016 show the same statutes 106.3xx
I believe Domestic Partner is an expression that covers both homosexual marriage as well as common law marriage in addition to more traditional marriage. And what's the reference to breeding pair? My wife and I consider ourselves to be a traditional marriage even though we both are too old to conceive at this time as well as were unable to do so even in our younger years.
Fallacy. Federal law says we do. As for the whole cousin thing.... Yeah.... Figure that one out... And just so we're clear: Equal Marriage bad. Cousin marriage good?
Well, I pointed you to the Oregon Revised Statutes updated through 2016. Not much more I can tell you.
Well, I for one am glad you brought our attention to this very, very important issue. But, there is more that you can do. Might I suggest that you paint the following on the sides and/or sails of the MarAzul? I Support Gay Cousin Marriage! If you don't fight for gay cousins rights, who will? barfo
So, what do you think? You think they made it up just to annoy you? Or do you suspect there was no logical reason behind it? Did you know that the legislature has lots of lawyers they hire just to go over bills and make them legal and logical before they vote on them? Yes, it's a fact. I've talked to one who described the process to me.
May 19, 2014 - Oregon Becomes 18th State to Legalize Gay Marriage "A federal judge struck down Oregon's voter-approved ban on same-sex marriage Monday [May 19, 2014]. 'Because Oregon's marriage laws discriminate on the basis of sexual orientation without a rational relationship to any legitimate government interest, the laws violate the Equal Protection Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment to the United States Constitution,' U.S. District Judge Michael McShane said in his ruling..."
You can maybe start by answering his questions. This is a forum marzy and people discuss back and forth, you ask questions, the person answers, the other party asks questions and you should do your best to answer truthfully. It appears you like to start subjects but don't really like to discuss anything about it.
>>> No >>> No, I see no logic for the domestic couples. Lazy perhaps, since this is the same bann as is in place for the Married couples, which of course has a good reason.
