"MAPLEWOOD, N.J. - Hundreds of same-sex couples gathered to register domestic partnerships on Saturday, the first day of a new law in New Jersey that gives gay partners some of the same rights as married couples.
More than 200 people attended a morning ceremony marking the law going into effect. Many arrived hours early, sitting on the municipal building's steps or on lawn chairs while filling out domestic partnership applications. "
A very special congrats to my friends Faith and Sue who were united in VT two years ago and now have the same recognition in their own state. Also conrats to their two terrific daughters Zoe and Jamie. A great day for them.
