We're joined by Mara Keisling, executive director of the National Center for Transgender Equality, who has compiled a list of "65 wonderful things that happened to transgenders this year." We talked with Mara about what was good about 2004 what to look for and work for in 2005.

The groups urged Massachusetts employers to maintain their domestic partner (DP) benefits programs even though same-sex civil marriage is now recognized in the state. More Information:
