The ACM has a dues plan that I think it would benefit IEEE to adopt.
A married couple can pay a reduced price for 2 memberships, and receive
1 copy of the ACM publications that come with their memberships.

My future husband and I would both like to continue our IEEE memberships,
but really don't think it necessary to receive 2 copies of Spectrum
and The Institute. Heavens, we shared my copy quite adequately when
he hadn't joined IEEE yet.

How much support would I need to get for this idea before IEEE would
consider it? After all, the advertisements in Spectrum seem to be aimed
squarely at couples (the life insurance ads).
