BTL Editorial: New era for Presidential
http://www.pridesource.com/article.shtml?article=300284/17/2008
"Excerpt: And here in Michigan, changes are happening at the state and
city level at an astounding rate. Just last week, the Detroit City
Council voted almost unanimously to add "gender identity and
expression" to the list of attributes protected from discrimination by
a city ordinance. Detroit joins the group of seven out of 10 of the
largest cities in America who have similar ordinances. Other Michigan
cities are following suit. Detroit, coming in as the 11th largest
city, adds a powerful name to the cause.
Likewise, seven state universities have passed similar
anti-transgender discrimination policies, and Governor Granholm just
signed an order offering the same protection for state employees."
