Two weeks ago, Congress resumed its session after the Easter break, and a whip count began to determine whether there are enough votes for the Employment Non-Discrimination Act (ENDA).

We need 216 votes to pass the bill (at least until some of the current vacancies are filled).

Speaker Pelosi's office has long claimed that no whip count can take place until the bill is marked up, and the bill's language is finalized.

It's a good article with solid numbers. Even better is the discussion in the comments.
