Bills would allow civil unions for gays in Hawaii

Same-sex couples would have the legal benefits of marriage through a civil union, according to bills introduced in the Legislature.

The state Democratic party asked for the legislation, and Democrats in the House and Senate are supporting the bills.

In the Senate, Sen. Gary Hooser (D, Kauai-Niihau) introduced a bill, SB-1062, to permit two unrelated people at least 16 years old to apply for a civil-union license "without regard to gender."

The bill would extend the same rights and responsibilities of married spouses to partners in a civil union.

that systematically destroyed pacific islander native cultures and sprituality and replaced them with the official Salt Lake City and east coast religious party lines.

the original hawaiians considered all people valuable, as their society could not afford to make people into outcasts, except for political enemies. the different and effeminate men, frequently known as "mahus", were given a special status in the culture.

the christian missionaries and business people who destroyed the hawaiian culture had other thoughts on that however.

let us hope that the glbt people will get what they want on this issue.
