Governor Jim Doyle delivers his State of the State address tonight, and one of the topics he may discuss is establishing a domestic partner benefits system for state employees.
The Governor says, if Wisconsin wants to remain competitive, the Legislature needs to approve a system for domestic partner benefits. Doyle says that's especially true when it comes to the UW System, where the state is often competing to attract top talent to do their research here.
Doyle says it's the right thing to do and competitively important.
