Is there a difference between the two? I don’t know. Wikipedia has an informative article “Recognition of same-sex unions in Hawaii”. It briefly covers the background of same sex unions in Hawaii. There is also a link to the Dept. of Health about reciprocal beneficiary.
I don’t know if this is a good idea or not. It may become costly for employers. It may be a way to cover the uninsured or underinsured. But at what cost?
I must credit the senate committee for listening and Senator Bunda for his statement in Sunday’s paper. A lot of thought was put into this and hopefully both sides feel that they were heard. The senate has to do what it has to do.
