ENDA

[mandysee_mandydo]

Okay, I know this is a form letter but it's still an issue I am supporting and I hope you'll support it, too. So... on with the copy-and-paste action! Please visit the link and support ENDA!

Did you know that in 31 states it's perfectly legal to fire someone for being gay? Or that in 39 states it's legal to fire someone for being transgender?

I found it pretty hard to believe. Here we are in the 21st century, in a country that prides itself on equal opportunity, and millions of Americans can be denied a job or fired - not for poor performance, but for simply being themselves.

I just took action with the Human Rights Campaign to end this appalling injustice. I hope you'll join me today, by sending a message to your lawmakers in Congress urging them to pass the Employment Non-Discrimination Act, which will make this kind of discrimination illegal once and for all.

It's easy. To take action, go to:

Jamie, it infuriates me that my US Rep is a freaking Right Wing Conservative Christian nut case with a safe seat (unless another Republican unseats him in the primaries). There is no representation for liberal views in Colorado Springs. -- Sunstone

That's very unfortunate. :(

Well, try anyway, I guess? If anything maybe it'll piss him off? hehe

It's funny how our representative "democracy" isn't truly all that representative. Wait, did I say funny? I meant tragic and flawed.

I stuck the petition up on my blog and also in a thread on Religious Forums. Hopefully, it will get some action. Thanks for the tip! -- Sunstone
