Kennedy To Introduce ENDA In Senate

(Washington) Senator Ted Kennedy (D-Mass.) says he will introduce a Senate version of the the Employment Non-Discrimination Act in the current session.

"I'm working with leadership to move this bill forward as quickly as possible," Kennedy said in a statement.

The Massachusetts Democrat has a long history of advocating for LGBT civil rights.  Most recently he guided the Matthew Shepard Hate Crimes Act to passage.

"But who is that on the other side of you?"

NOW......would be a good time to get involved with a last chance effort at having gender identity language included in the senate bill.
If you want to (and I can't understand anyone here not wanting to!) take an active role in your future, you can contact Kennedy's office (phoning is better, as they are all logged as a 'vote') here:
