## Key points

- West Hollywood approved domestic partnership registration for groups of three or more.
- The ordinance includes visitation and limited tenant protections.
- Registered partners do not receive the full rights of married couples.

## Summary

West Hollywood has unanimously approved an ordinance allowing three or more people in a committed relationship to register as domestic partners. It gives registered partners limited recognition and protections, while stopping short of granting them the same legal rights as married couples or conventional domestic partners.

Partners can register by filing paperwork with the city clerk, subject to conditions including mutual consent and no blood relationship; they do not need to live in West Hollywood. The ordinance provides visitation rights in healthcare facilities and city jails, and bars landlords from ending or refusing to renew a tenancy solely because a registered partner remains in the home. The vote follows earlier city measures protecting people based on family or relationship structure and work on a multi-partner registry.
