ENDA Vote in Question
By Kerry Eleveld

The Employment Non-Discrimination Act may be losing momentum this year based on a strategic impasse caused by what many insiders say is a lack of support in the Senate.

"This issue is just not ready for the Senate," said an LGBT advocate and political insider who spoke on the condition of anonymity. "The procedural aspects of debate would make it way too easy for a [Sen. Jim] DeMint or a [Sen. Tom] Coburn to demagogue."
