For the past few weeks, members of Congress and leaders within the lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) community have debated how best to advance the Employment Non-Discrimination Act (ENDA). This legislation was initially intended to protect LGBT Americans from arbitrary firing and other forms of employment discrimination.

While states as diverse as Iowa and California already protect LGBT Americans from employment discrimination, 31 states still do not. Thus, there is overwhelming public support for federal employment protections. Reflecting this, a 2006 Gallup Poll reveals that 89 percent of respondents favor equal employment opportunities for gay people.

I think it's a good thing but it would be great if they did more to enforce the discrimination laws.

All this type of stuff and most other discrimination things would have been solved back in the day if we had past the ERA.

Nothing will change because of a bill. The gay community still has no protections to speak of.
