1. The Employment Non-Discrimination Act of 2013 (ENDA) creates new, subjective protected classes that will expose employers to unimaginable liability.
2. ENDA would further weaken the marriage culture and the freedom of citizens and their associations to affirm their religious or moral convictions.
3. ENDA also would limit the ability of private employers to run their own businesses and is an unjust assault on the consciences and liberties of people of goodwill who happen not to share the government’s opinions about issues of marriage and sexuality.
