(The Advocate) -- Maryland senate president Thomas V. "Mike" Miller, whom some advocates blamed for the setback of a transgender civil rights bill last week, deemed the legislation to be “anti-family" in the waning days of the legislative session.
...“I personally believe it’s anti-family, and so I am going to vote against it,” said Miller in the interview. “The problem is this: I have senators that are not going to hire, uh, people with male sexual organs who wear a dress to serve as receptionists, okay? Umm, and so if they're not going to do it, if the senators and house members themselves wouldn't hire a person in that category, how can we say to constituents, you've got to do this?"
