What branchs of Judaism do not allow sexually-active homosexual Rabbis?

A reform temple near where I live has an lesbian Rabbi and her significant other as head of the Congregation.

Do Conservative and Orthodox Jews welcome this as well?

No orthodox Christian or Jew can practice homosexuality.

Note God says more negative things about fear and unbelief than He does about homosexuality.

Orthodox Judaism bans sexual active homosexual rabbis. But allows homosexual rabbis aslong as they do not commit homosexual acts.

Conservative Judaism it depends. It is a very disorganized group. Some will allow it, some won't.

Orthodox Judaism doesn't approve of sexually active gay people, but being gay itself isn't an issue (although there are some very homophobic Orthodox people, mostly those from the Haredi/Hasidic end of the spectrum).

Conservative Judaism ordains gay rabbis, but I can never remember what their position on gay sex is. I don't think they think that's acceptable, but it doesn't really matter because everybody ignores that pronouncement. Or maybe individual rabbis are allowed to accept the liberal tshuva that accepted gay people in all respects.
