"BOSTON — U.S. Rep. Joe Kennedy is among those planning to testify at a public hearing on a pair of bills that would extend non-discrimination protections to transgender people in public spaces in Massachusetts.
The Massachusetts Democrat and other supporters of the bills want to expand a 2011 state law protecting transgender people from discrimination in the workplace and housing by adding "gender identity" to the state's civil rights laws."
