I’d also note at this time that hospitals are not required to not grant gay couples visiting privileges, rather they cannot be legally compelled to so. I therefore would urge all hospitals in Wisconsin to institute policies that grant persons being able to show ‘life partner’ status the same visiting privileges accorded to married couples. (I leave to the forum to propose how this status would be proven, as some evidence would be needed to prevent the policy being used to evil ends by people not actually a life partner.)
