ENDA – Baldwin Amendment, will you please call?

Mon/Tues call you congressional rep ask them to SUPPORT THE BALDWIN AMENDMENT TO ENDA (H.R. 3685)

The Vote will be this Wednesday.

This is our last effort to include gender identity in ENDA. As of now, it looks like there will be a vote on the Amendment and then on the overall ENDA bill next Wednesday, October 24. Please call your congressional legislator and ask them if they are supporting HR 3685 and if they will support the Baldwin amendment.

We need a big push on Monday and Tuesday!

We need to convey a specific, very targeted message that we want our Congressional representatives to vote YES on the Baldwin Amendment to put gender identity back into ENDA.

You can call your Representative right now at 202-224-3121, even if you have already called him/her already about this issue. Tell him/her to support the Baldwin Amendment to H.R. 3685.
