This came in my inbox this morning with a note that it is has been made available for publishing at Pam's House Blend.

So, here's that letter -- It's to Maryland Sen. Brian Frosh from a parent of a young trans woman:

[...]

    This bill is particularly important to me as the mother of a young transgender woman.  She is the product of Montgomery County Public Schools (Woodacres Elementary School, Pyle Middle School, and Walt Whitman High School), where equality for all members of our community was emphasized and practiced.  Now that she has graduated from college and has entered the work force, it is essential that she, like other minorities, be supported by a law that guarantees that she will not be discriminated against when it comes to employment, housing, and credit.
