Obama for America

This is huge - the Senate is going to vote on ENDA



If you care about the long fight for justice and equality, mark this moment down:

Any day now, the Senate is expected to cast a vote on the Employment Non-Discrimination Act ENDA , legislation that would make it illegal to discriminate against LGBT Americans in the workplace.

Now is a pretty important time to stand up and say you support ENDA -- will you add your name?

Most folks think this kind of discrimination is already illegal across the country -- probably because it's so obvious that it should be.

In fact, more than 77 percent of Americans have said they support legislation like this.

And no matter what happens in the Senate this week, the fight won't be over. It's going to take everyone who believes in equality making their voices heard to get this bill to President Obama's desk.

If you believe we all deserve protections against discrimination in the workplace, you should add your name today:

In 29 states, there are no state laws specifically protecting LGBT individuals from discrimination in the workplace.

If that makes you angry, stand up right now and say it's time to change it:

What the Senate is voting on this week is designed to fix this problem.

The Employment Non-Discrimination Act ENDA was first introduced 17 years ago -- the bill would provide federal protection against workplace discrimination based on who you are or who you love.

Any day now, ENDA will be up for a vote in the U.S. Senate. It's about time.

A lot of OFA supporters are passionate about this -- it's a problem that affects so many people we know and love.

Today's an important day to stand up and show your support for ENDA -- add your name right now:
