Conservative group objects to wording of referendum on transgender law

WASHINGTON (Map, News) - Leaders of a group seeking to overturn a new Montgomery County law that bars discrimination against transgender people object to how local leaders worded a ballot referendum that could overturn the rule.

The referendum's wording, as approved by Montgomery County Council members Tuesday, mimics the language of the law itself, saying: "Shall the Act to prohibit discrimination in housing, employment, public accommodations, cable television service and taxicab service on the basis of gender identity become law?"

It sure gave them pause for thought didn't it?  But they always get back to potty talk.  I swear that businesses should set up unisex single room loos comfortable for everyone.  I know that it is more expensive but it does seem that the public hates us so much .... they might just spring for it.
