Daily News | Wolf backs regulatory change that would formalize discrimination protections for LGBTQ Pennsylvanians
“Unfortunately, given Republican-led efforts to push legislation that only seeks to discriminate and bully individuals and their refusal to take up commonsense bills, this action through regulation is one more way the administration can protect Pennsylvanians,” Rementer said in a statement.
The proposed rulemaking would adopt a definition of sex based upon the 2020 U.S. Supreme Court ruling in, in which the court found 6-3 that existing federal law protected an employee from being fired just for being gay or transgender. By formalizing the guidance, transgender, nonbinary, and other gender-expansive individuals could have even more recourse at a local level, said Tyler Titus, a former Erie school board member and the first openly transgender individual to win public office in the commonwealth.
