How the Civil Rights Act of 1964 could protect LGBT workers today
More than 50 years after Martin Luther King Jr. helped usher in the Civil Rights Act of 1964, advocates are hoping the law can be used to protect LGBT workers.
The American Civil Liberties Union on Thursday asked the Department of Justice to use the Civil Rights Act to protect gay and lesbian workers, BuzzFeed's Chris Geidner reported. The Justice Department already interprets the law to protect transgender workers.
The Civil Rights Act prohibits various forms of discrimination on the basis of race, color, religion, sex, or national origin, in part allowing those who have been discriminated against in the workplace to take legal action against their employers. The question for LGBT advocates is whether Title VII of the Civil Rights Act, which in part prohibits workplace discrimination on the basis of sex, also applies to gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgender, and gender-nonconforming workers. (ANSWER; FUCK NO IT DOESN'T APPLY AND YOU FUCKIN KNOW IT! In regards to sex it is just ANOTHER FORM OF SAYING GENDER! SO STOP THE BULLSHIT! IT APPLIES TO DISCRIMINATION BASED OFF OF GENDER! NOT WHETHER OR NOT YOU WANNA LICK PUSSY AND GET ASS-FUCKED BY ANOTHER MAN! GET THE FUCK OUTTA HERE WITH THIS BULLSHIT!)
But the federal government and most states don't have explicit nondiscrimination protections for LGBT workers. (NOTICE, NOOOOOOOOOOOTICE! That the WHITE LGBT HAVE NO INTENTIONS OF MAKING THE SHITTY-ASS MISTAKE THAT OUR SO-CALLED LEADERS MADE. They want laws SPECIFICALLY DESIGNED FOR THEM, AND THEM ALONE! Something WE SHOULD BE PUSHING FOR RIGHT FUCKIN NOW! NOW! We need to fuckin BAIL OUT OF THIS AFFIRMATIVE-ACTION BULLSHIT, BECAUSE IT'S GOT TOO MANY DICK-RIDERS INCLUDED IN THAT SHIT LIKE WHITE. FUCKIN. WOMEN! Fuck do THEY NEED AFFIRMATIVE FOR!? And who was on guard-duty politically for Us as Black People, TO HAVE FUCKIN SAID "SURE WE'LL GO ALONG WITH LETTING YOU ADD WHITEWOMEN AND NON-BLACK PEOPLE" FUCK OUTTA HERE! And if Whites had have said, which I'm sure they did, "Then if you don't agree to this now, then!? The Deals off and it might never come, WAIT!? WAIT WHERE R U GOING SHAWN!? GODDAMN IT NIGGER I'M TRYING TO FUCKIN CON YOU INTO FUCKING UP! SOMEBODY STOP HIS ASS! WHY DON'T THEY FUCKIN SEND THE SOFT-SHOE SELLOUTS SO SHIT GOES SMOOTHER!? STOP THAT MOTHERFUCKER BEFORE HE TELLS THE REST OF'EM WE'RE TRYING TO SUCKER THEM AGAIN!)
(And yes, I decided to use THE WHITE CAT for this meme-pic, just so White People understand that I speak THEIR LANGUAGE and will Act-n-React Accordingly in matters of the Black State)
Currently, 22 states protect against workplace discrimination based on sexual orientation, and 19 protect from discrimination based on sexual orientation or gender identity. So without federal protections, employers can legally fire workers because they're gay, lesbian, bisexual, or transgender.
The Supreme Court in 1989 decided that Title VII protects workers from sex stereotyping. Advocates argue those protections can extend to any social stereotype or expectation based on sex that LGBT people may defy in the workplace.
"It's pretty uncontroversial that discriminating against a man that acts too effeminate or a woman that acts too masculine is a form of sex discrimination," the ACLU's Joshua Block previously said. "That applies to lesbians and gay men, too."
The US Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) agrees with LGBT advocates. In multiple rulings in 2011 and 2012, EEOC concluded that Title VII's protections against sex discrimination protect transgender and gender-nonconforming workers and, in some cases, gay, lesbian, and bisexual people.
There's one catch: EEOC rulings aren't the law of the land. The Obama administration enforces the EEOC's ruling to protect trans workers, particularly federal employees and employees of federal contractors. But courts facing workplace discrimination cases typically consider the EEOC rulings as expert advisories and nothing more, potentially leaving private workers in the dark.
The EEOC and Supreme Court, for example, once disagreed on whether federal law indefinitely prohibits discriminatory pay practices against women. It took congressional action — the Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Act — to grant stronger pay protections for women.
Along the same lines, it could take congressional action, such as the passage of the Employment Non-Discrimination Act (ENDA), or a Supreme Court decision to ensure US courts follow the EEOC's interpretation.
"We think the EEOC's position is absolutely the correct legal position, and it should be very persuasive to any court, including the Supreme Court," Block said. "But when you're talking about basic human rights … you want explicit protections in the law."
