Washington state's political correctness rampage is still in full swing despite the will of the people:

Tacoma council passes discrimination ordinance

Wednesday, April 24, 2002
SEATTLE POST-INTELLIGENCER STAFF
The Tacoma City Council yesterday voted 8-1 in favor of an ordinance that would make discrimination based on sexual orientation or gender identity illegal.
The dissenting vote was cast by Councilman Mike Lonergan, who made his objections to the ordinance clear to the public before the vote. Lonergan says he's against discrimination, but doesn't think sexual orientation needs to be singled out. The city had before passed an anti-discrimination rule regarding sexual orientation, but the law was overturned by a special voter initiative.
The new ordinance would amend the city's existing law, which protects people from discrimination based on race, color, religion, national origin, gender, age, physical disability, marital status or family status.
