Charlotte May Soon Offer Domestic Partner Benefits | Though a proposed marriage inequality amendment looms on the May ballot, the city of Charlotte, North Carolina may soon begin offering benefits to employees’ same-sex partners. City councilmember Patsy Kinsey told Qnotes that the votes to pass the benefits plan are there, and nondiscrimination protections could be viable in the near future. The fast-tracked version of the amendment did not include protections for domestic partner benefits and could have the effect of banning them outright across the state.
