Senate passes expanded hate crimes bill
The Senate passed groundbreaking legislation Thursday that would make it a federal crime to assault an individual because of his or her sexual orientation or gender identity. The expanded hate crimes law now goes to President Obama’s desk.
President George W. Bush had threatened to veto a similar measure. The bill is named for Matthew Shepard (above), a gay Wyoming teen who died after being beaten in 1998. developing story
