On Wednesday, Rocky Anderson will make history.
At noon in City Hall, the Salt Lake City mayor will quietly sign an executive order to offer a handful of health benefits to gay and unmarried heterosexual partners of city employees.
This won’t last long – probabably not through the end of the next legislative session – but it’s nice to see these two categories together for the first (and probably last) time.
Poor Rocky – He’s written his own death warrant. I doubt if this gets anywhere – too many people in “the” church to oppose it. At least he’s trying. I’m sure he has the gay community in his pocket!
