Today the Bay Area Reporter broke news about Verizon's shareholders holding an important vote to add transgender protections to the company's employment policy:
A shareholder proposal to amend Verizon Communications Inc.'s written equal employment policy to explicitly prohibit discrimination based on gender identity was voted down May 1, but backers of the plan say they were encouraged by the amount of support it got, and the group that proposed the resolution will bring it back next year.
