SF supes panel again advances SOGI legislation after 'substantive changes'
The San Francisco Board of Supervisors' rules committee once again advanced an update to the city's administrative code that would allow the collection of the sexual orientation and gender identity data of city workers and prospective employees.As the Bay Area Reporter previously reported, the same panel had moved the legislation forward last month.
But gay District 8 Supervisor Rafael Mandelman made what straight ally District 3 Supervisor Aaron Peskin called "substantive changes," and so the new version had to be approved by the rules committee to be heard by the full board.City leaders want to be able to ask employees and those who apply for jobs with the city and county in a voluntary way if they identify as part of the LGBTQ community..
