From a trans perspective: Fair housing is dead. Title IX is dead. Title VII, EO 13672, and Section 1557 may be dead by week's end.
How are Title IX and Title VII jeopardized by what’s happening to Section 1557? Pardon my ignorance.
Separate things. Title IX was already sent for reinterpretation, Title VII will be undermined by potential EO, Sec 1557 remand is distinct.
What news do we have on the executive order front? This is the first I’ve heard of a potential threat to Title VII.
Story here: http://www.politico.com/story/2017/05/02/donald-trump-religious-liberty-executive-order-237888 … Language expected to be similar to February draft. Basically undermines Title VII.
You can't simultaneously have employment protections *and* provide an untestable vehicle that allows people to be fired.
I suppose the only thing I can do is sincerely hope this order does not cross 45’s desk, or if it does, hope that it is barred by courts.
The powerlessness I feel in moments like these is heavy and burdensome. I wish there was more I could do.
Me too. I'm sorry. For us both :(
