From The Seattle Times, Microsoft again supports gay rights legislation:

Microsoft will formally support efforts to pass gay rights legislation in Washington state, Chief Executive Steve Ballmer told employees today in an e-mail addressing a flap over the company's earlier decision to take a neutral stance on the issue in Olympia this year.

And from the sounds of it, the bill will come up again for a vote as soon as next year. It won't be soon enough -- it stuns me to realize that, in Washington State, anyone can be discriminated against for housing, employment, etc. on the basis of sexual orientation.
