HUFFINGTON 11.10.13 JASON E. MICZEK/AP IMAGES FOR HUMAN RIGHTS CAMPAIGN Voices BARACK OBAMA Congress Needs to Pass the Employee Non-Discrimination Act HERE IN THE UNITED STATES, we’re united by a fundamental principle: we’re all created equal and every single American deserves to be treated equally in the eyes of the law. We believe that no matter who you are, if you work hard and play by the rules, you deserve the chance to follow your dreams and pursue your happiness. That’s America’s promise. That’s why, for instance, Americans can’t be fired from their jobs just because of the color of their skin or for being Christian or Jew- North Carolina business leaders and The Human Rights Campaign distributed flyers in support of ENDA in July 2013.
