Make it happen!

Thank you, cali! Jackpine Radical was right on when he said how incredibly awesome you are!

world about equality, freedom and all ... but then exceptions are made as to whom that applies. This, would be an excellent step in the right direction. Equal should mean equal. NOT, Equality means applying to only certain groups.

Amending the Civil Rights Act to include LGBT people is more effective and inclusive of more areas of discrimination than the current ENDA.
41 years and 1 month ago, Representatives Bella Abzug and Ed Koch introduced The Equality Act which sought to offer all the protections included in the Civil Rights Act to LGBT persons. Of course it did not pass and over the years we wound up with ENDA, which is Employment only and does not cover housing or services. ENDA got watered down to exclude trans people and the discussion then came back to making a fully inclusive ENDA. But what we really need is the whole enchilada as offered in The Equality Act, which is the same enchilada as the one in the Civil Rights Act.

So Bernie's vision is of a complete and total equality, which was, is and will remain the objective until that objective is won.

We need to end these bigotry laws against OTHER HUMAN BEINGS!!!
