ENDA, Moral Bankruptcy, and Failed Senate Leadership

Daniel Horowitz (Diary) |

Over the past few years of defacto Democrat supermajority control of the Senate, we have pointed out that legislative battles are won or lost long before the vote is cast.

The Senate just voted 61-30 to proceed with the transgendered special rights bill (ENDA), all but ensuring its final passage by the end of the week. Seven Republicans Susan Collins, Dean Heller, Mark Kirk, Kelly Ayotte, Rob Portman, Orrin Hatch, and Pat Toomey voted for it.
