What Transgender Opponents Really Think

Finally, we uncover the true agenda of the opponents of Montgomery County's Transgender Anti-Discrimination bill. But first some background.

Last September, Montgomery County Council Members Duchy Trachtenberg, Valerie Ervin and Marc Elrich introduced Bill No. 23-07. The bill's purpose was to "prohibit discrimination in housing, employment, public accommodations, cable television service and taxicab service on the basis of gender identity." Its primary effect was to add "gender identity" as a protected class from discrimination along with age, race, religion, color, sex, sexual orientation, handicap, national origin or marital status under County Code Chapter 27.
