Sexual orientation and marijuana is bringing a lot of attention to city council in Springfield tonight.

The city clerk's office says more than 40 people have signed up to speak about the proposed human rights ordinance to add sexual orientation and  gender identity to the list of protected categories.

The other issue involves decriminalizing marijuana. Council can either approve it, or place the question before voters in November.

The meeting gets underway at 6:30 p.m.
