Editors' Note: Guest blogger Tico Almeida is a civil rights litigator at the boutique law firm of Sanford Wittels & Heisler LLP, which was recently named by Law360 as the only plaintiff-side law firm on the 2010 list of the Top Five employment law practices in the United States. From 2007 to 2010, Mr. Almeida served as the lead counsel on the proposed Employment Non-Discrimination Act (ENDA) in the U.S. House of Representatives. This is part three of a three part series: 3 Ways to Improve ENDA Advocacy.

Yesterday, Rep. Barney Frank held a press conference on Capitol Hill regarding the introduction of the bipartisan Employment Non-Discrimination Act (ENDA) of 2011. Frank decided he would continue collecting original co-sponsors for another few days before actually "dropping" the bill "in the hopper." But his ENDA game plan for the next two years is clear.
