Here's an interview I gave to bOUT2, an LGBT podcast based around a radio show that broadcasts in southern Indiana. Hosts Helen Harrell and Sean Lemieux of WFHB's Blooming Out radio show and I discuss the legal and political meaning of ENDA, the Employment Non-Discrimination Act (HR 3017).
Here's what we chatted about:
- Is Congress more ready to pass ENDA this year than last time?
- Why is Indiana Equality alone in opposing ENDA?
- Is ENDA giving in to "incrementalism"?
- How do the Dallas Principles and ENDA interact?
- What do the small business and religious exemptions in ENDA mean?
- Would ENDA interfere with state and local civil rights protections?
- How is Facebook's Inclusive ENDA campaign helping to pass ENDA?
Also check out Alex Blaze's interview from last week.

As a co-author of the Dallas Principles, I appreciate Dr. Weiss's interpretation of them. In The Dallas Principles, we hoped to articulate a common set of goals and principles that we hope will inspire and mobilize our community, allies, and political leaders to act individually and collectively to achieve full LGBT civil rights now.
