New Equality MD Director Carrie Evans And Trans Rights

The Washington Blade has a story about the appointment of Carrie Evans as the Executive Director of Equality Maryland.

After the debacle last year of the failure of both a marriage equality bill and a trans rights bill, and a divisive split in the trans community about whether to support or oppose the trans employment rights bill because it failed to include public accommodations, as well as the meltdown experienced by Equality Maryland afterwards, this story caught my eye.

I'm glad to see that Equality Maryland has found someone to lead, and Ms. Evans sounds like a competent leader. What will this mean for trans civil rights protections in Maryland?
