Rudy Giuliani in The New York Daily News


On Civil Rights: Extended all city benefits to same-sex couples

National Republicans can lump it if they don’t like his new domestic-partners bill, Mayor Giuliani said yesterday. “I really haven’t thought about what the impact is on Republican politics or national politics or Democratic politics,” Giuliani said. The bill he submitted to the City Council would extend the benefits city agencies must grant to gay and lesbian couples. “I’m proud of it,” Giuliani said of the bill. “I think it puts New York City ahead of other places in the country.”
