"Excerpt: Regarding the controversy over the Human Rights Campaign's
decision last fall not to demand congressional leaders include gender
protections in the Employment Non-Discrimination Act, Mixner joined in
the chorus of LGBT leaders denouncing HRC's stance.
"I am for transgender inclusion strongly. I don't think we get
equality by being intolerant towards others," said Mixner. "So I think
an ENDA without trans inclusion is an empty victory."
