AI Summary
This bill prohibits discrimination based on gender identity or expression, which is defined as a person's actual or perceived gender-related identity, appearance, behavior, or other gender-related characteristic, regardless of the sex assigned to that person at birth. It amends various laws to include gender identity or expression as a protected characteristic, similar to how laws already prohibit discrimination based on race, color, national origin, sexual orientation, and other characteristics. The bill also includes offenses regarding gender identity or expression within the list of offenses subject to treatment as hate crimes.
