Ed Markey on Twitter: "Unless you live in Illinois, California, or Rhode Island, gay and trans panic defenses are legal in your state. My bill w/ @RepJoeKennedy would ban LGBT panic defenses in federal court & serve as a model for states to begin outlawing this hateful practice. https://t.co/zn0ErNGf7S"

  Had no idea this law existed, it’s absolutely vile. Thanks for fighting the good fight.

  I can't believe this is even a thing. As the mother of a gay daughter, I'm glad I live in CA, where she is safe from ignorant laws such as this.
