Note:
Republicans voting for ENDA were Sens. Susan Collins, Maine, Mark Kirk, Ill.,
Lisa Murkowski, Alaska, Dean Heller, Nev., Kelly Ayotte, N.H., Rob Portman,
Ohio, Jeff Flake, Ariz., John McCain, Ariz., Orrin Hatch, Utah, and Pat Toomey,
Pa.
“ . . . ENDA represents
government-sanctioned viewpoint discrimination, plain and simple. It is no
different from forcing a deeply religious business owner to hire and
accommodate an “out and proud” adulterous “swinger.” It directly alienates the
unalienable rights of people of faith. It pits the government directly against
the free exercise of religion and is, therefore, unconstitutional on its face.
During his second term, President George W. Bush issued a Statement
of Administration Policy on ENDA, highlighting its unconstitutionality: “[ENDA]
is inconsistent with the right to the free exercise of religion as codified by
Congress in the Religious Freedom Restoration Act (RFRA).”
President Obama, however – who never met a Constitution he didn’t
violate –
has vociferously endorsed the bill and promises to sign it into law should it
pass both houses of Congress. This is in perfect keeping with his demonstrated
belief that the federal government’s constitutionally limited powers are more
of a suggestion than a requirement. . .“
