It was an honor to attend yesterday's White House briefing on LGBT issues.

Many subjects were discussed, and I think all are worthy of discussion, so I'm going to take them one at a time. Yesterday I discussed the question I had asked on ENDA.

Today, let me start with the initial statement of Assistant to the President and Director of the White House Domestic Policy Council Melody Barnes. She is very knowledgeable on LGBT issues and has worked hard on these issues throughout her long and distinguished career.

She offered a snapshot of the issues on which the Administration has been working.

I'll address the other topics discussed in the meeting in future posts.
