		<description><![CDATA[The California Supreme Court&#8217;s recent ruling upheld Proposition 8, which denies same sex couples the right to marry.  However that ruling does not affect registered domestic partners&#8217; state workplace rights which are quite similar to those of heterosexual couples.
