Bad news in Maryland. The Gender Identity Anti-Discrimination bill died on the last day of the session.

Metro Weekly's Yusef Najafi has the details:

The Maryland Senate just sent the Gender Identity Anti-Discrimination Act, House Bill 235, back to the Judicial Proceedings Committee during the bill's second reading, 27-20, killing the bill in this year's legislative session.
UPDATE @ 1:29 PM via Twitter from Yusef:
Update: @DanaBeyerMD tells me 9 Senators backed out of supporting #HB235. @EqualityMD "shocked."
