Maryland Transgender Bill Killed

Maryland Senators today voted to quash a bill that would have added ‘transgender’ as a protected class when it comes to employment, credit, and housing discrimination.

The bill, called “Gender Identity Anti-Discrimination Act,” had been much-debated, even among gay rights activists, with some calling Senate members “discriminatory” for seemingly delaying its passage and others crying for its rejection, saying the bill did not go far enough in protection.

Too bad they did not do that for the "Dream Act" which was supported by the Maryland Catholic Conference. BTW, I know that the MCC was against this bill but I don't remember seeing anything on it. Do you?

Maryland Senate Bill 238

The Maryland Catholic Conference (MCC) has asked Catholics to fight MD Senate Bill 238, which would lift the statute of limitations on lawsuits against child abusers to 32 years after the alleged act.

According to the statement they have put out, it will not apply to government agencies and public schools. And from what I have read, there has been a great deal of abuse going on in public schools around the country but little is done about it.

Either everyone should be able to be sued equally or drop it. If this is the case, then FIGHT it.

Write to your legislator.

Fight it.
