With the stroke of a pen, President Obama will extend workplace protections to 14 million LGBT Federal contractors. Thankfully, LGBT San Diegans are already protected by State law, but this is not the case for all Americans. I applaud the President for doing the right thing. Now it is time for Congress to end discrimination for all workers. California and 17 other States have shown that these protections aren't just the right thing to do, they are good policy and good business. Discrimination has no place in government. Discrimination has no place in the work place. It is past time for Congress to listen to the American people. The Senate has already passed the Employment Nondiscrimination Act. Let's bring ENDA to the floor and pass it today. ____________________
