Community Meeting to Support Transgender Rights Legislation02:12PM / Monday, March 09, 2009
PITTSFIELD, Mass. - The Western Mass Chapter of the Massachusetts Transgender Political Coalition (MTPC) invites everyone to a Community Meeting for Trans Rights Legislation at Dottie's Coffee at 444 North Street in Pittsfield, on Friday March 20 at 6:30 p.m.
MTPC is delighted that there is now a majority of legislators in both the State House and Senate supporting the bill: An Act Relative to Gender-Based Discrimination and Hate Crimes which was proposed by Representatives Carl Sciortino and Byron Rushing on the House side, with Berkshire-based Senator Ben Downing in the lead in the Senate. This bill adds the category of “gender identity or expression” to the State hate crime laws as well as to the employment, housing, credit, public accommodations, and public education non-discrimination laws.
At the March 20th meeting the Chapter will present an update on the status of this legislation, outline a strategy to help get it passed in 2009, and solicit feedback, suggestions, and support for moving forward.
Please join MTPC members to learn about our work, the reconvening of the Western Mass Chapter, and how we plan to collaborate with other activists and organizations. There will be light refreshments and ample time for networking and socializing.
All are welcome. Please RSVP to info@masstpc.org or call 617-778-0519. For more information visit http://www.masstpc.org. |
