Following the lead of other states, the Massachusetts Legislature on Thursday sent a bill aimed at preventing discrimination against transgender individuals in public accommodations to Gov. Charlie Baker's desk.
The bill sparked vigorous debate during its journey through the House and Senate but ultimately cleared both branches by veto-proof margins, although supporters are hopeful that Baker will sign the bill.
WASHINGTON (AP) — Frustrated by the FBI's decision not to indict Hillary Clinton, congressional Republicans are pressing the agency to launch a new investigation into whether the Democratic presidential candidate lied to Congress during her testimony on the deadly attacks in Benghazi, Libya.
The House Benghazi committee is set to meet Friday to approve a report on its two-year investigation that found no wrongdoing by Clinton but did reveal that she used a private email server for government business.
