Bars discrimination based on sex, gender identity, and sexual orientation in public places.
This bill would update the Civil Rights Act of 1964 to protect people from discrimination based on their sex, gender identity, or sexual orientation. It would apply these protections to a wide range of public places and services, including stores, online businesses, healthcare providers, and transportation. The bill also clarifies that individuals could use shared facilities, like restrooms, that match their gender identity.
Today, federal law prohibits discrimination in public places based on race, color, religion, and national origin. After this bill, federal law would also prohibit discrimination based on sex, gender identity, and sexual orientation in a much wider range of public accommodations, including online services and healthcare providers.
