    Needlessly cruel & bigoted: State Dept. will no longer let same-sex domestic partners of UN employees get visas unless they are married. But only 12% of UN member states allow same-sex marriage.https://twitter.com/pass_blue/status/1045674180161736706 …

    Breaking: From a UN source this AM: a message from the staff union announcing that the us mission will no longer give g4 visas to same sex unmarried couples. Possible backlash?

        Also: "Currently accredited same-sex domestic partners of UN officials who wish to maintain their G-4 visa must be ready to submit proof of marriage by 31 December 2018. After 12/31, they will be expected to leave the US within 30 days" if they can't show proof of marriage

        They are just evil. This is an administration that contemplated torturing children as a way to prevent refugee from seeking refuge in a country that celebrates a 105 foot statue with a poem in the base welcoming refugees.

        Rumours that it’s also only going to be recognised as a marriage if the staff members own country recognised the marriage...

        This was the @UN rule up until we lobbied to have it changed a few years ago, but as far as we understand, it's up to the UN to decide what location qualifies as a marriage issuer for a visa, not the state dept.
