Advocate Reveals New Findings from HRC ENDA Poll

Andy Towle November 9, 2007

Additional results of a poll of 514 LGBT people taken by Knowledge Networks, Inc., of Menlo Park and sponsored by the Human Rights Campaign were revealed today by The Advocate.

EndaThe poll concerned the Employment Non-Discrimination Act, which was passed on Wednesday by the House in a 235-184 vote.

According to the magazine, the first question asked participants “which of the following three statements was closest to reflecting their views”:

A. National gay, lesbian, bisexual, and transgender civil rights organizations should oppose this proposal because it excludes transgender people.

B. National gay, lesbian, bisexual, and transgender civil rights organizations should support this proposal because it helps gay, lesbian, and bisexual workers and is a step toward transgender employment rights.

C. National gay, lesbian, bisexual, and transgender civil rights organizations should adopt a neutral stance for this proposal because while it helps gay, lesbians, and bisexual workers, it also excludes transgender people.

Check out the results after the jump…

The Advocate reports: “Of those surveyed, 67.7% agreed with statement B, while 15.8% agreed with statement A, 12.8% agreed with statement C, and 3.6% did not answer.”

The results of a second survey question — “This proposal would make it illegal to fire gay, lesbian, or bisexual workers because of their sexual orientation. This proposal does NOT include people who are transgender. Would you favor or oppose this proposal?” — were also revealed.

For those results, visit The Advocate here.
