What this bill does

Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau

Currently, the fair employment law prohibits discrimination in employment

and licensing on the basis of age, race, creed, color, disability, marital status, sex,

national origin, ancestry, sexual orientation, arrest record, conviction record,

military service, use or nonuse of a lawful product off the employer's premises during

nonworking hours, or declining to attend a meeting or to participate in any

communication about religious or political matters. This bill adds gender identity

as a prohibited basis for discrimination under the fair employment law.
