Google Launches International Campaign For Recognition of Same-Sex Marriage

Apple and many other tech companies have offered benefits to same-sexcouples (and sometimes made them a sticking point) for quite some time now,but Google is taking its position of inclusion for sexual minorities outside the company itself; the company has announced an international campaign to promote legal marriage equality for same-sex couples,called “Legalize Love.” According to CNN’s version of the story,while this represents Google’s policies overall,the campaign will at first “focus on countries like Singapore,where certain homosexual activities are illegal,and Poland,which has no legal recognition of same-sexcouples.” dot429 quotes Mark Palmer-Edgecumbe of Google, speaking in London Saturday at a summit where the initiative was announced: “We want our employees who are gay or lesbian or transgender to have the same experience outside the office as they do in the office. It is obviously a very ambitious piece of work.”
