"KCPW News) Since 2007, about twenty people in Utah have reported losing jobs or housing because of their sexual preference, according to Yana Walton of the Utah Pride Center. She says those numbers are now being tracked.
"Equality Utah, a local political advocacy organization that works on behalf of GLBT Utahns, has asked the State Labor Department to keep track of people that have been fired for their sexual orientation or gender identity since 2007. So this is a recent tracking that's happened," says Walton."
