My first op-ed written for the Advocate went up this week - "Prescription for an Ailing ENDA." prescription-drugs.jpg I lay out a three point prescription on how to get ENDA passed before the end of this congressional session when health care reform has dominated the conversation.

In related news, the US government's website for job seekers now lists gender identity as part of the EEO statement.

    The United States Government does not discriminate in employment on the basis of race, color, religion, sex, national origin, political affiliation, sexual orientation, gender identity, marital status, disability, age, membership in an employee organization, or other non-merit factor.
