WI GOP Gov. Scott Walker wants to strip hospital visitation rights from same-sex couples

In addition to destroying his state's unions, Scott Walker has a new target: hospitalized gay people.

The Governor won't defend a law that gives hospital visitation rights to same-sex couples. It's probably the least controversial of all LGBT related issues -- and Wisconsin gives its same-sex couples very few protections. The Obama administration changed the visitation regulations to provide protections at any hospital that accepts Medicare and Medicaid (another reason for the GOPers to destroy those programs.) But, in Wisconsin, Walker wants no protections.
