Celebrating US Supreme Court's Landmark Decision as #Our正规博彩十大网站排名

雅各布斯首席法律和行政官、棱镜计划执行发起人乔安妮·卡鲁索(乔安妮·卡鲁索)回顾了昨天的里程碑事件.S. Supreme Court ruling echoes for equality and inclusion.

Two years ago when I became the Executive Sponsor of PRISM, our employee network group for LGBTQI+ employees and their allies, I learned that in a majority of states in the United States, 雇主基于性取向或性别认同的歧视是合法的. 说我对2018年的情况感到惊讶和震惊是轻描淡写的.

昨天, 美国最高法院发布了一项具有里程碑意义的决定，认为1964年《首页》第七章禁止基于性取向或性别认同对个人的就业歧视. The decision resolved three cases before the Court – in two of those cases, employees were fired from their jobs when their employer found out they were gay; in the third, 一名跨性别女性在勇敢地告诉雇主她决定做变性手术，并以女性身份全职生活和工作后，被解雇了. In analyzing whether these actions violated the law, 最高法院, 最终以6比3的投票结果, 解释说:“如果雇主因为一个人是同性恋或变性人而解雇他，那么他就不会因为其他性别的人有这样的特征或行为而解雇他. 性在决定中扮演着必要且不可掩饰的角色，而这正是第七章所禁止的.”

在雅各布, 我们的政策已经禁止这种歧视，这一裁决不会改变我们对任何员工不歧视的承诺, 包括我们的LGBTQI+同事. 然而, the importance of this ruling to our LGBTQI+ employees, 他们的家庭, and to anyone who believes in equality, inclusion and non-discrimination cannot be overstated.

As we have all been seeing and discussing these past few weeks, 为了确保所有人的基本和基本的公民权利和人权，仍有许多工作要做. 这一历史性的裁决是这场斗争向前迈出的重要一步，应该得到庆祝.
