On Monday, June 15th, 2020, the Supreme Court has solidified protection for LGBTQ employees, banning any employer in the United States from terminating or discriminating against an employee based on their sexual orientation or gender identity. The ruling includes these protections under Title VII of the federal Civil Rights Act. Though Colorado has protected our LGBTQ workers since 2008, up until Monday, it was legal in 29 other states to discriminate against workers due to their LGBTQ status.
