Supreme Court To Hear 3 Cases On LGBTQ Rights In The Workplace

The video discusses a legal issue affecting LGBTQIA Americans, questioning if employers can legally fire someone for being gay or transgender. The court will consider if Title VII of the 1964 Civil Rights Act, which prohibits sex-based discrimination, includes sexual orientation and gender identity. Currently, sex is defined biologically, and expanding this could affect employment protections. While some states allow termination based on sexual orientation or gender identity, the House has passed the Equality Act to expand Title VII, now awaiting Senate approval.
