Baltimore County's legislative body, the County Council, passed a gender identity anti-discrimination bill, which protects transgender people from discrimination, the the Washington Blade reported.

Those who were against the bill failed to collect enough signatures in order to start a referendum process. The Blade points out that even if opposers were able to collect enough signatures "it is highly likely that 50 percent of those signatures would have turned out to be invalid anyway."
