The board voted 6-5 against adding trans protections to the agency's nondiscrimination policy, according to Rafael McDonnell, a spokesman for Resource Center Dallas  who attended the meeting.

McDonnell reported that the DART board, acting as the committee of the whole, initially voted 6-5 to approve the proposal to add gender identity to DART's nondiscrimination policy.
