California Bans Transgendered Discrimination
California's embattled Governor Gray Davis signed into law a bill that prohibits transgendered discrimination in housing and employment. Only three other states, New Mexico, Rhode Island and Minnesota, provide similar protection to the transgendered.
The new California law will prohibit discrimination against people whose ``perceived gender characteristics are different from those traditionally associated with the individual's sex at birth.''
