http://www.advocate.com/news_detail_ektid23628.aspThe Indianapolis city council on Monday night narrowly approved a measure banning discrimination against gay, lesbian, and transgender people in housing, employment, and public accommodations. After the same measure failed last April on an 18–11 vote, three Democrats and one Republican changed course, resulting in a 15–14 vote to enact the pro-gay protections. A controversial proposal about merging the city’s police force also passed Monday after failing earlier this year, prompting opponents of both measures to accuse council members of vote trading.
