Biden would vote ‘yes’ on ENDA split

by Matt | August 28th, 2008 |

In response to a question asked during his brief visit with the Pennsyvania delegation to the Democratic Convention, Vice Presidential nominee Joe Biden said that he would vote “yes” if he had to break a tie on the Employment Non-Discrimination Act (ENDA) while serving as President of the Senate.

In 1996, ENDA was voted on and lost by one vote. It was the first time it was voted on and the last.

It’s too bad no one thought to ask him his position on an inclusive or exclusive ENDA.

Chris Crain has more on Biden and his record.
