They are converted to marriages

The Marriage Equality Act, passed in 2015, granted marriage rights to same-sex couples. This includes the conversion of domestic partnerships to marriages, regardless of age. Option A is incorrect because the act affected domestic partnerships as well. Option C is incorrect because the act did not automatically dissolve domestic partnerships. Option D is incorrect because the act did not convert domestic partnerships to civil unions. Therefore, the effect of the Marriage Equality Act on same-sex domestic partnerships when neither partner is 62 or older is that they are converted to marriages.
