Reps. Frank, Baldwin say House can pass trans-inclusive ENDA

After five weeks of counting votes, Reps. Barney Frank, D-Mass., and Tammy Baldwin, D-Wis., say the Employment Non-Discrimination Act, including transgender-specific language, has enough votes to pass the House of Representatives.

Frank said he rejected the idea of decoupling gender-identity and sexual-orientation nondiscrimination language.
