Mexico LGBT March Celebrates 30 Years

June 30th, 2008

While strides have been made in the movement, like the recognition of civil unions between same sex partners last year, organizers say there is still much to be done. Same sex couples still do not have access to their partner’s social security benefits or inheritance.
