What this can and cannot do

This is a request, not a law. The City Council is asking the United States Congress to act, because the subject is outside the city's authority. Passing it commits the city to a position; it does not change the rule.

Summary

Recognizing the duty of the Federal Government to develop and implement a Transgender Bill of Rights (S. Res. 144/H. Res. 269).
