BOSTON, Mass. (WWLP) - Transgender advocates gathered at the State House Wednesday to push a bill that would provide more legal protection for transgender people.
It’s been dubbed the bathroom bill by critics because they are worried this will force companies to provide an additional bathroom for transgender people. But, this bill is about a lot more than just bathrooms.
This legislation would add "gender identity and expression" to the state's nondiscrimination laws. It would protect transgender people from being denied employment or housing.
