April and May may be 'do-or-die' time for ENDA and DADT



| Reddit | Tumblr | Digg | FARK

Joe writes on AMERICAblog gay that if Congress doesn't get to work on passing ENDA, and repealing DADT, in April and May, it may not happen for years to come.

The next couple months are pivotal for the viable pro-equality bills on Capitol Hill. Over the next couple days, we're going to see how motivated Democrats are to take up pro-gay legislation. Already, as John noted, there's talk among House Democrats that the members don't want to take any "tough votes" for the rest of the year. I have a feeling too many people in the Democratic caucus would consider DADT and ENDA among the "tough votes" they won't want to take. We'll be witnessing "political homophobia" in action.
