Fed DP benefits bill to get markup
Committee to consider measure Nov. 18

A House committee has scheduled Wednesday for its markup of a bill that would make benefits available to the same-sex partners of federal employees.

The House Oversight & Government Reform Committee markup of the legislation, known as the Domestic Partnership Benefits & Obligations Act, will take place Nov. 18 at 2 p.m. in room 2154 of the House Rayburn Building.

The committee will consider amendments to the legislation before voting on whether to report out the bill to the House floor.

The markup will take place the same day that the House Education & Labor Committee is considering the Employment Non-Discrimination Act.
