Not all ordained ministers and not all partnerships. In jurisdictions where same-sex marriage is legal, any minister who is registered with the state as a marriage officiant can sign a same-sex marriage license the same as any other marriage license. However, any type of legal same-sex partnership other than marriage (i.e., civil union, domestic partnership, reciprocal beneficiaries, etc.) is purely civil and does not call for signature by a religious authority.

What is the difference between an Ordained Pastor and a Licensed Pastor?
An ordained minister has been examined by a congregation and found to be orthodox in his beliefs. Then, those that have interviewed him certify or vouch for his orthodoxy and lay hands on him and prayer for his ministry. They then sign a paper stating that he is ordained by that group. To be licensed is to have the state's registration. It includes what affiliation the minister claims. There is not an examination of orthodoxy. Ministers are allowed to perform certain actions such as marriage with the state license.
