Still no answer on ENDA executive order

White House Press Secretary Jay Carney declined to provide an immediate answer Monday as to why President Obama hasn't taken administrative action to institute non-discrimination protections for LGBT people in the workplace.

In response to a question from the Washington Blade, Carney said he could look into the issue of what might be preventing President Obama from issuing an executive order prohibiting federal dollars from going to companies that don't have non-discrimination protections based on sexual orientation and gender identity.
