On March 8, Cambridge, Massachusetts City Council adopted amendments to the city’s Domestic Partnership Ordinance allowing polyamorous domestic partnership.  The ordinance now provides that

“Domestic partnership” means the entity formed by two or more persons who meet the following criteria and jointly file a registration statement proclaiming that: 1. They are in a relationship of mutual support, caring and commitment and intend to remain in such a relationship; … 5. They consider themselves to be a family.

CNA reporting on the amendment points out that Cambridge becomes the second town, after Somerville, to legally recognize such domestic partnerships.
