Let Congress Know You Care About ENDA

Congress Swears In on January 6! Let them know you care about ENDA!

On January 6, Members of Congress raise their right hand and swear to uphold the Constitution as they begin the new legislative session.

Let’s make sure the first thing they hear about is the importance of an Employment Non-Discrimination Act that protects all lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender people.

Sample Letter for Campaign

Subject: Please Support an Inclusive ENDA this year!

Dear [ Decision Maker ] ,

Please support an inclusive ENDA - the Employment NonDiscrimination Act that protects lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender Americans from losing their jobs just because of their sexual orientation or their gender identity.

Federal law already bans job discrimination based on race, gender, religion, and other categories that are essential to a person's being. But employers in many states can still fire people because they are gay or transgender.

LGBT Americans deserve and need the ability to work -- just like every American. Please help by sponsoring and supporting an inclusive ENDA in 2009.

Thank you.

Sincerely,

Campaign Launched:
January 06, 2009



Background Information

The Employment Nondiscrimination Act (ENDA) would extend federal employment discrimination protections that are currently provided based on a person's race, religion, gender, national origin, age, and disability to lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender Americans as well.
