Sorry if this is old news re. equal rights:

Equality Florida

BREAKING: The Orlando City Commission just voted unanimously to add gender identity and expression to the city's anti-discrimination law. There was no opposition present in the audience. Kudos to Equality Florida's Transgender Inclusion Director, Gina Duncan for leading the charge on this and for the leadership of Mayor Dyer and Commisioner Sheehan! Thank you Orlando!

(And just FYI... I am straight and married, but I support my friends and neighbors in their struggle for equality).
