From Triangle Foundation: Support the Employee Non-Discrimination Act today!

The Employment Non-Discrimination Act, which would make employment discrimination against G, L, B or T workers illegal, is under attack by right-wing, religious extremists who are telling lies about this vital legislation.

Here are the facts: In thirty states, including Michigan, your boss can fire you if s/he even thinks you're gay, lesbian, bisexual or transgender. And a recent survey of over a decade of research by the UCLA School of Law has found that job discrimination happens to a huge number of people in our GLBT community nationwide.

Please, help us support efforts by the Human Rights Campaign and the National Gay and Lesbian Task Force to protect you - and our nationwide GLBT community - from employment discrimination.

There are three things you can do:

You can send a letter to our U.S. Senators and your Congressperson here.

You can help your friends, family and co-workers receive important news about this and other issues here.

Finally, you can support our work to protect you - your job, your life, and your family - with a donation here.
