Delaware’s Sen. Tom Carper: ENDA Legislator of the Day

How will Delaware’s Senator Tom Carper vote on S1584, the Employment Non-Discrimination Act? We don’t know, since he hasn’t yet indicated his position.

In understanding the strategy for the Employment Non-Discrimination Act (ENDA), which would extend civil rights to LGBT workers, it’s important to understand that secrecy is our enemy. The Senate leadership will not bring this vote to the floor unless there are enough Senators in favor to overcome the expected Republican filibuster. That means 60 solid votes. Senator Tom Carper of Delaware, though his record suggests that he has been supportive of LGBT civil rights in the past, has kept mum. That’s a problem. Please call him and ask him to support S1584.
