Sebelius seems to say (I'm not a lawyer) that the government can't withhold all funding from a state for not creating new programs, so this could be used as a precedent the other way. <br />I'm not sure which way, or how, this will come out. I did see pointed out that the North Carolina law sidesteps 'gender identity' by specifying biological gender and not perceived gender. <br />The one thing I am sure of is that this will mean more money for lawyers!<br />Jonathan Hhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10476185257203343474noreply@blogger.com
