It kind of does.  ENDA has hit the point of non-controversiality that it would pass the House overwhelmingly if Boehner were to let it come to a floor vote.  Democrats blew their chance to get this done in the first two years of Obama's tenure and it's going to likely take until the 2020s to pass as a result, solely because the House leadership doesn't want to give the Administration a victory.

No, it wouldn't.

Republicans preventing Congress from passing common sense legislation!?  You could knock me over with a drag queen's feather boa.

ENDA was NEVER controversial (in fact, most people think it's already law). The fact that it still hasn't been passed is pretty sad.

Yes, and it also depresses me.
