Issues: Employment and Affirmative Action Sexual Orientation and Gender Identity

"It is extremely important for Congress to recognize and address discrimination that exists in employment against people on the basis of their sexual orientation and gender identity. It is up to Congress to assert that such discrimination is illegal and un-American," said Congresswoman Tammy Baldwin (D-WI), Co-Chair of the Congressional LGBT Equality Caucus. "I am proud to join Congressman Frank and our colleagues in introducing this inclusive Employment Non-Discrimination Act and look forward to working with them this Congress to advance the legislation," Baldwin said.
