"California, which already leads the nation in protecting transgender students, now has stronger legal protections on the books to protect transgender people of all ages.
Gov. Jerry Brown today announced he had signed a bill, A.B. 830, that clarifies that transgender individuals and others targeted for violence because of their gender expression can sue under a law that covers crimes motivated by gender."

I think when Christie leaves office it will get better here for LGB and T rights.
