Wisconsin

In 2006, Wisconsin voters passed an anti-relationship recognition constitutional amendment. Despite the passage of this discriminatory amendment, during the 2009 legislative session, Wisconsin legislators passed a law that provides gay couples access to some protections and responsibilities at the state level through domestic partnerships.

 

State advocacy groups continue to work to overturn discrimination and move towards true fairness and equality for Wisconsin's families—the freedom to marry.
