i've been following her for years, and afaik baldwin helped remove the gender identity language to get it passed but then attempted to reintroduce the language to the bill. recall the ENDA did not get signed into law at all.
where did you get your information, anon? tumblr?

da and i'm looking at the videos and the statements and the only place calling her transphobic is one tumblr comment that got a lot of notes

in this capnews clip, she explicitly states makes the amendment to bring the floor's attention to the fact that enda wasn't trans* friendly, but withdrew it because she knew that if she tried to get it to pass, then enda would fail for sure. like she knew that enda was only helping a portion, introduced the amendment to make a point, and then withdrew it in hopes that enda would pass after all. she says, straight up, "i believe that those who will be left behind by this bill, deserve to hear, on this house floor, that you are not forgotten, and our job will not be finished until you too share fully in the American dream."

yep that's exactly what i mean. and so while there is a larger discussion to be made about what use an ENDA ia without gender identity protection, and what political utility there is to chipped away bills like this, i'm not comfortable saying that this action alone makes her transphobic. smh at everyone on my dash reblogging that one post like they know what they're talking about.

as anon who said she was transphobic, thankyou so much for posting this!! sorry for making the comment when i'd only read a couple of website/blog posts about it u_u obviously its more complicated than i thought.

ok!! as long as you know a little more u_u pls be very careful about taking news from tumblr, and about calling congresspeople transphobic or any other claim about their stance without educating yourself first. she was basically the only person to bring trans* back into the conversation, calling her transphobic is just... very far from the truth lol :(
