Question about DOMA
Does anyone have any insight into how this affects couples married in a state where it is legal but living in a state where it is not?
It would seem to open a can of worms to only allow federal benefits if you're living in a state where it is legal, no matter where you got married. After all, what if your job transfers you from Massachusetts to North Carolina?
