An estimated 250 people lobbied lawmakers last week for transgender protections at the Massachusetts Statehouse, gay weekly Bay Windows reported.

Thursday's third annual Transgender Equality Lobby Day served as a reminder that Massachusetts – arguably the nation's most liberal state – has yet to join 13 other states in approving laws that protect transgender people. The event was sponsored by the Massachusetts Transgender Political Coalition (MTPC) and the Massachusetts chapter of National Organization for Women.
