The AP reports that our illustrious governor Jennifer Granholm made a point of adding "transgendered individuals" to the lengthy list of protected minorities/special interest groups...
LANSING, Mich. - Gov. Jennifer Granholm has issued an order that bars discrimination against state workers based on their "gender identity or expression," which protects the rights of those who behave, dress or identify as members of the opposite sex.
The order, which Granholm signed Wednesday, adds gender identity to a list of other prohibited grounds for discrimination that includes religion, race, color, national origin, age, sex, sexual orientation, height, weight, marital status, politics, disability or genetic information.
Of course our economy is in the tank, a huge set of new taxes are taking effect and we are bleeding jobs like a sieve, but at least we are watching out for deviants while the rest of the people in the state struggle to get by. Thanks Guv!
