What employment rights do gay and lesbian employees have?  Can you be fired for being gay?

Since 1993 various form and versions of the Employment Non-Discrimination Act (ENDA) has been pending in congress.   The ENDA would ban employment discrimination based on an individual's sexual orientation.

Arbitration was once an legal process that was only familiar to attorneys and executives of large corporations.  But in the 1990's arbitration agreements started showing up in more common places where everyday peoples was effected.  Arbitration agreements are now very common in the purchasing of a car, service contractors, employment contracts and even with hospitals and medical providers.
