Equality Maryland is hastily scrutinizing thousands of signatures gathered to challenge a transgender rights law that's now in jeopardy.
Dan Furmansky, the organization's executive director, said an attorney and several volunteers were reviewing this week all 32,087 signatures given to Montgomery County officials to overturn the law.
He said Equality Maryland is making plans to "challenge what we believe are probably a high rate of signatures that aren't valid."
