'A major controversy has erupted within the LGBT community over a decision by U.S. Representative Barney Frank (D-Massachusetts) to seek passage of a new version of ENDA that both excludes gender identity and, in the view of a major gay legal organization, is so "riddled with loopholes" as to render it a "far weaker bill" with seriously diminished ability to protect gay men and lesbians from workplace discrimination'
