Hunter --

President Obama just took a huge step forward in the fight
for LGBT equality.

Yesterday, he proposed an executive action that
would prohibit companies that receive federal contracts from
discriminating based on sexual orientation or gender
identity.

That's because it's unthinkable that -- in 2014 -- someone
could be fired for who they are or whom they love.

That's why the Senate passed the Employment
Non-Discrimination Act last year, which would protect all
LGBT Americans from workplace discrimination. But Speaker
Boehner is blocking it in the House by refusing to take a
vote.

Add your name right now -- tell John Boehner to follow the
President's lead and help stop discrimination against LGBT
Americans:

It's Pride Month across the country -- a great time to
reflect on how far we've come in the fight for equality. In
just a few years, we've repealed "Don't Ask, Don't Tell,"
the Defense of Marriage Act has been struck down, and nearly
half of all Americans live in states where same-sex couples
can now get married.

That's progress, and it's happening whether the opposition
likes it or not. We're winning, because there are millions
of people like you who are out there fighting for it.

When a state legislature in Arizona voted to make it legal
for businesses to refuse service to same-sex couples, people
organized and the governor vetoed it. That's the kind of
action we need whenever any interest group tries to turn
back the clock.

In 2014, discrimination against LGBT Americans shouldn't be
legal anywhere -- President Obama and a bipartisan majority
in the U.S. Senate have stood up and said that.

By refusing to hold a vote on ENDA, Speaker Boehner is
taking a stand, firmly on the wrong side of history.

Call him out -- add your name, and stand up against
discrimination today:
