City Joins Lawsuit Against Ban on Domestic Partner Benefits

The city of Ann Arbor will assist the American Civil Liberties Union in a lawsuit against the state over law banning domestic partner benefits for state employees.

Like many, I first came to this area when I started school at the University of Michigan, then fell in love with the community and haven’t left. After graduating from U of M in the mid 1990’s I interned at WDET for several years, while also working a variety of jobs in Ann Arbor. Then in 1999 I joined the WEMU news team.
