A matter of equality

Our view: Howard County protects transgender residents from discrimination; now state lawmakers must do the same for all Maryland citizens

Howard County's passage of a law last week banning discrimination against transgender people marks another significant step toward full equality for all Marylanders and it sends a strong message that the county will protect its residents' rights regardless of their sexual or gender orientation. We hope advocates for the lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender community can build on that success to extend such protections to all Maryland residents under legislation expected to be taken up when the General Assembly reconvenes in January.
