SCOTUS Weighing LGBTQ Workers’ Rights: What’s At Risk

This morning, the Supreme Court granted cert. in three cases asking whether Title VII of the Civil Rights Act’s prohibition on workplace discrimination based on sex also prohibits discrimination against LGBTQ workers. The Court granted cert. in Harris Funeral Homes v. EEOC, a ground-breaking case holding that Title VII prohibits discrimination against transgender workers, and two cases, Bostock v. Clayton County, Georgia, and Altitude Express v. Zarda, about whether Title VII prohibits discrimination on the basis of sexual orientation.
