New Jersey Passes Dangerous Hate-Crimes Bill
by Devon Williams, associate editor

Legislation adds gender identity as a protected status.

New Jersey lawmakers voted Monday to give transgendered individuals special rights. If Gov. Jon Corzine signs the legislation, the state would be the 12th to grant such strong rights. According to gay-activist groups, New Jersey has 153 laws to protect homosexuals and transgendered people."
