    So as some of you in the US may know, the Employer Non-Discrimination Act (ENDA) passed the Senate today by a vote of 64-32, with 10 republicans jumping across party lines to place yes votes. But, we still face a major hurdle in the passage of this law: The US House of Representatives. Speaker John Boehner may not even bring it up for a vote, unless urged upon, and republicans are ready to strike this landmark legislation down any minute. So I urge you to go contact your house rep., and ask them to please bring up ENDA for a vote and to please vote yes on it. If you need to find your house representative, you can do so here: Find Your Representative ยท House.gov

    This is a very important bill to US LGBT citizens, and I ask for your assistance in doing so. Thank you :slight_smile:
