HRC Flips its Position on ENDA
Previously, the Human Rights Campaign supported the passing of a version of ENDA, an anti-discrimination  bill, that excluded the protection of Transgender-identified individuals and other individuals that may experience discrimination based on gender identity.

"The Human Rights Campaign announced on Wednesday that it will only support trans-inclusive versions of the Employment Non-Discrimination Act moving forward"
