CHICAGO (AP) — Transgender people in Chicago will be able to use a public bathroom that corresponds to their gender identity under an ordinance passed by the city's aldermen.

Aldermen approved the change in Chicago's human rights ordinance Wednesday. Mayor Rahm Emanuel says it closes a legal loophole that could "inadvertently" allow restaurants, hotels and other "public accommodations" to discriminate against transgender people.
