A Maryland County Councilman plans to introduce a bill Tuesday pushing local businesses to change public bathroom restrictions to accommodate transgendered men and women.

Tom Quirk, a freshman Democrat on the Baltimore County Council, said his proposed bill, the Act Concerning Human Relations, is meant to eliminate employer discrimination based on a person's sexual orientation and gender identity.

"It's my strong belief that the only thing that should matter is someone's qualifications for a job," the District 1 representative told The Columbia Patch.
