Demonstrators urge passage of transgender rights legislation

[Forkboy]

After being hired for a job in Foxborough last year, Logan Ferraro, a 19-year-old transgendered man, received a call from his new boss.

On his application, he stated his gender as the one he identifies with: male. However, this didn’t match his Social Security data, which indicated he was female.

His boss had questions. After Ferraro explained his status, his boss assured him it would not be a problem.

The next contact Ferraro had with the boss, he said, was a letter with information on how to file for unemployment.
