Maryland gay rights bill survives GOP filibuster
In Annapolis a Maryland Senate session extended into the early morning hours as a Republican filibuster failed to derail a gay rights measure. Senator Alex Mooney led protests for nearly four hours before a voice vote approved the bill, with final passage possible today. The measure bans workplace, housing, and public accommodations discrimination for sexual orientation, covering businesses with 15 or more employees and landlords with five or more rental units. Mooney’s four amendments, including an religious-belief exemption, all failed. The governor praised the outcome as a cornerstone of his agenda.
