## Summary

West Hollywood’s City Council unanimously approved an ordinance recognising polyamorous relationships, giving registered groups of partners access to some legal benefits similar to those available to married couples. The measure applies to consenting, non-incestuous relationships and is intended to extend protections to people whose relationships involve more than two partners.

The benefits include hospital and jail visitation rights for all registered partners, as well as expanded rental rights for tenants. The article gives no further details about how registration will work or when the ordinance takes effect.
