Shame on Rep. Barney Frank and the rest of congress who decided to vote on the non-inclusive ENDA bill.Shame on HRC who claims that they represent the whole TLGB community, but in reality they do not. They promised us that they would not support a non-inclusive bill. But when the going gets tough they decide to back down just because it is easier to pass with just sexual orientation in it.I will never trust what HRC says again. Now we neen to get behind the Senate version to include gender identity/expression. Call or email your Senator today and let them know your feeling on this important legislation.
