New Hampshire House Passes Transgender Rights Protections
The New Hampshire House of Representatives voted today 188 - 187 to pass HB 415, “An Act Adding Certain Terms Regarding Non-discrimination to the Laws,” which would provide critical non-discrimination and hate crime protections to the state’s transgender citizens. The bill was originally voted down 181-149 last month, but House members opted to reconsider the legislation today. The bill now moves on to the Senate.
GLAD has been working closely with PFLAG New Hampshire and other allies on passage of this crucial legislation.
