Moments ago, SB139, legislation that would add gender identity and expression to the state's current hate crimes law passed the Nevada State Assembly, 30 to 11.

Last month, this bill, sponsored by openly lesbian State Senator Pat Spearman, passed the Senate with all but one senator voting in favor.
