The release of the Human Rights Campaign Foundation's Corporate Equality Index (CEI) is eagerly awaited in the LGBT community because it's a barometer of progress that indicates just how well businesses are treating their LGBT employees. Even more noteworthy is that the trend of progress makes it clear to lawmakers at every level of government aware that private enterprise has not suffered by treating all of its employees with respect and equal access to benefits in supportive environments.
