It is fundamentally unfair that some employees get more or better benefits than other employees doing the same job. As a State employee, I have the option of putting my husband on my insurance plan; most employers offer that option. The State of Virginia has forbidden some of its tax-paying, law-abiding citizens to marry the person that they love; if these citizens work for the State, they get fewer benefits than their co-workers.
