		<description><![CDATA[Once again the far right is wrong but their money bought the influence of the Maryland Senate committee members. When the Maryland House passed a trans-protections bill in 2011 but the Senate refuses to recognize the plight of trans people I have to wonder if these Senators are just blind or stupid. Sen. Brochin had over 1,000 constituents contact urging him to support this bill but he ignored them. How is that representing the voters that put you in office?]]></description>
