Update: Jenna Fischetti provided the text of her statement at the hearing. What I heard second hand about her testimony wasn't true -- she didn't mention the false assertion in her testimony.

I'm waiting to hear back from her regarding the Metro Weekly quote -- whether or not she was quoted accurately in the story. If she didn't make the statement she's quoted as making, I'll retract this story in entirety.

[...]

There was something that troubled me a great deal in reading the piece that I feel needs addressing immediately -- it's a false statement about passage of transgender specific antidiscrimination laws in other states than Maryland.
