Gov. Bill Ritter
of Colorado signed a nondiscrimination law Friday that
offers new legal protections to gay, lesbian, bisexual, and
transgender individuals. Prior to the signing,
Colorado's nondiscrimination law covered only
the categories of race, sex, religion, and disability.
In a press
release, Joe Solmonese, president of the Human Rights
Campaign, a national gay rights group, praised Colorado
lawmakers for "taking this important step to
advance equality for Coloradoans." He
concluded, "Opponents of equality did their best to
scare and divide Coloradoans, but it's
heartening to see that their tactics were
rejected." (The Advocate)
