West Virginia city is latest to pass fairness ordinance

Gailyn Markham by Gailyn Markham

?????????????????????????????????????????

?????????????????????????????????????????

KEYSER, WV (AP) — West Virginia now has 14 cities that have adopted local fairness ordinances protecting LGBTQ residents from discrimination, a civil rights advocacy group said.

The Keyser City Council voted Wednesday night to adopt such an ordinance prohibiting discrimination in employment, housing and public spaces for any class of people, including sexual orientation and gender identity, Fairness West Virginia said in a news release.

Keyser, located along the Maryland border in northeastern West Virginia, has about 5,000 residents.

In 2017 the state Supreme Court ruled that the state’s hate crime law does not cover anti-gay assaults.
