The Gambier Village Council Monday made the town the 29th municipality in Ohio to pass its own version of the Ohio Fairness Act, legislation that adds sexual orientation and gender identity or expression to antidiscrimination laws in the Buckeye State.
Gambier also happened to be the first to do so via Zoom.“The world seems to be on hold, but many people can’t wait to be afforded basic legal protections everyone else has,” Alana Jochum, executive director of Equality Ohio, said in a statement.
