Domestic partnership in Wisconsin : ウィキペディア英語版 | Domestic partnership in Wisconsin
Domestic partnerships in Wisconsin afford limited rights to same-sex couples. They have been recognized in Wisconsin since August 3, 2009. Domestic partnerships in Wisconsin provide select rights, such as the ability to inherit a partner's estate in the absence of a will, hospital and jail visitation, and the ability to access family medical leave to care for a sick partner. Wisconsin's domestic partnership registry does not provide for two-parent adoptions by persons of the same sex, and it confers far fewer rights, duties and protections than are associated with marriage. Wisconsin was the first state in the Midwest to enact any form of recognition for same-sex unions. Of the several states that have bans on same-sex marriage and civil unions, Wisconsin was the first and only one to enact limited domestic partnerships. ==Domestic partner registry== Wisconsin Governor Jim Doyle proposed legislation for same-sex partnerships in Wisconsin on February 17, 2009.〔(2009 Assembly Bill 75 ), ''passim''.〕 On June 13, the Assembly passed, by vote of 50–48, a state budget that incorporated domestic partnerships for same-sex couples.〔Assembly Bill 75, (Journal of the Wisconsin Assembly, June 11, 2009 ), p. 263–264. The vote was taken after midnight on June 13.〕 The Senate passed the budget on June 17 by vote of 17–16.〔Assembly Bill 75, (Wisconsin Senate Journal, June 17, 2009 ), p. 218.〕〔()〕 Doyle signed the budget legislation on June 29.〔 〕 The Domestic Partnership law took effect on August 3.
