Bureau of Labor Statistics changes how it counts married couples. [View all]
From the BLS monthly employment survey:
Also beginning with data for January 2020, estimates of married persons will include those in opposite-sex and same-sex marriages. Prior to January 2020, these estimates include only those in opposite-sex marriages. This will affect marital status estimates in tables A-9 and A-10. Historical data will not be revised.
