Last month, on April 12, Taryn Nash stood at a microphone and shared her reasons for cheering on the equality ordinance in Missoula.

In the wee hours of April 13, the Missoula City Council widened the umbrella that protects people from housing and work discrimination so it includes Nash, a member of the LGBT community - folks who are lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender.

On Thursday, the law takes effect.
