Discrimination isn't sweet. Congress has the chance to pass HR 2015, the Employment Non-Discrimination Act (ENDA), which would protect Americans from workplace discrimination based on sexual orientation and gender identity.

Now a substitute bill has been introduced as HR 3685, which would not stop discrimination based on gender identity. Removing gender identity from ENDA would leave an artificial aftertaste. Not only would the substitute bill leave some working Americans behind, it would also create divisions among Democrats and fair-minded advocates.

Let's help Congress continue to build support for the original ENDA. The well-intended substitute just won't do.

Sign the petition to tell Congress to support the original ENDA and accept no substitutes!

**Update: You helped acheive our goal, but our original goal of 3,000 people committed to passing a more effective, fully inclusive ENDA isn't enough. We now need to get at least 2,000 people more to send a strong signal to Congress that America supports the original ENDA.
