FORT WORTH, Texas – American Airlines, the world's largest airline and a founding member of the oneworld Alliance, has written Congress a letter of support for the passage of the Employment Non-Discrimination Act, which is currently under consideration. In the letter, American states:
"(We are) proud to express our strong support of federal workplace non-discrimination legislation that would extend basic job protections to gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender Americans. We are proud to have been the first major airline to implement same-sex domestic partner benefits, first to implement both sexual orientation and gender identity in our workplace non-discrimination policies, and first to have a recognized LGBT employee resource group – GLEAM.
