Business Law I APPLIED RESEARCH Fair housing Laws A course paper presented to the School for Arts and Sciences and Distance Learning in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Baccalaureate Business Law I Park University September, 2006 You would think that today’s society would not discriminate against someone based on their race, color, or national origin. With the changes in lifestyle, people continue to discriminate against those, but also someone’s sexual orientation. Even with laws and regulations, it continues in all parts of the country. The Civil Rights Act of 1964, more specifically Title VI, stated that you could not discriminate against anyone in programs and activities receiving federal

Discrimination against race, gender, religion, or other social characteristics is occurring in all parts of the United States almost every day. Unfortunately, the U.S. has a history of extreme case of discrimination, which has evoked controversy and in worse cases, violence. To discourage any more of adverse discernment towards certain individuals, the Federal government has imposed legislation called affirmative action. According to At Issue: Affirmative Action, “Affirmative action is designed to promote access to opportunities in education, employment, housing, and government contracts among certain designated groups, such as women and minorities“ (At Issue). This law is necessary in today’s society in order to maintain equality and

Animals: Working For a Living Kristin Pachella COM/156 September 22, 2012 Kelly Rottman Animals: Working For a Living There are many different types of animals that work for us. There are three types of service animals that help the disabled. Guide animals assist the blind, hearing animals signal the deaf, and there are many other animals that help persons with other disabilities. Another way that animals work for us is by providing emotional support to those with mental health issues. These animals are usually prescribed by a doctor and they are called emotional support animals. One last way that we can see an animal working is in the military. There are many military working dogs that serve to protect us just as a

We are all people, what separates one person’s sin from another? Who is to tell another, who they cannot love? Who is to judge a mother for feeding her child with her body? Who is to show disrespect to another because they want to be someone else? I believe this Bill will welcome more compassion for one another rather than hatred towards something unknown. The original Civil Rights Act of 1964 was to include sex, sexual orientation, and gender identity to all public accommodations. America needs laws in order for the government to stay in control, but times are changing. In which requires our laws to be more accommodating to the changes we are experiencing. A pending bill called H.R.3185 Equality Act has been introduced to Congress to bring

Overturning Proposition 209 would allow universities to consider race, ethnicity and gender in admissions. Affirmative action was an outcome of the Civil Rights Movement during the 1960s. In the past, affirmative action has been used to improve opportunities with education and employment for excluded minority groups in American society President Kennedy was the first to use this term “in an Executive order that directed government contractors to take affirmative action to ensure that applicants are employed, and that employees are treated during employment, without regard to their race, creed, color, or national origin” (Affirmative Action, 2014).

This decision has affected people’s behavior as individuals and public institutions such as family, young, elderly, disabled, LGTB and those with pre-existing conditions. For example, Kates & Ranji (2014) report that health care access and coverage for the lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGTB) community in the U.S. face opportunities and challenges when getting access to care. The authors report that LGBT individuals experience some discrimination because of their sexual orientation or gender identity, due to ongoing discrimination, access to health care have been limited to these people (Kaiser Family Foundation, 2014). LGBT individuals not only face discrimination when trying to receive care, but also face difficulties that limit them such as “barriers in obtaining insurance coverage, gaps in coverage, cost-related hurdles, and poor treatment by health care providers” (Kates & Ranji, 2014).

Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 prohibits job discrimination based on race, color, gender, religion and nation of origin. With the recent acceptance of marriage equality, it may leave the population doubting if they can be open and honest about their life. While, Title VII now encompasses the lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender (LGBT) population, individuals may continue to fear their protection within the employment process. This is due to the ongoing debate within each state to implement anti-discrimination laws protecting LGBT workers. This may encourage people to purse a career based on fear of discrimination rather than compatibility.

The biggest component fueling the backlash is religion and the rights bestowed onto it via the constitution and peoples own religious beliefs regarding same-sex marriage. Both at a state and private level, opponents to the decision reached would knowingly deny service to same sex couples due to religious beliefs. Wolf (2016) stated that “Some states, led by Mississippi and North Carolina, have enacted laws intended to protect those who deny services to gays, lesbians, bisexuals or transgender people because of religious objections. Tennessee and Kansas have passed less sweeping religious exemption laws.” Some states who oppose the ruling believe that they have a fundamental right to enact laws protecting those who deny service to people who share beliefs that go against the religion’s beliefs of the service provider. They believe that the freedom of religion deems their actions in the right, but they are sadly mistaken. Although I highly support all rights within the constitution I can clearly see that the freedom of religion doesn’t grant people the right to segregate others who simply hold different beliefs than others who follow religious beliefs that sate otherwise. The freedom of religion protects one’s ability to practice their religion for themselves, not to force it on others whom share differing opinions than that of their religion. Universities and colleges have also been a topic post ruling, before the ruling, universities were implementing rules to house couples but not homosexual couples in their housing programs. When discussing how this ruling will affect not only religious sanctions whom marry people, but also religious affiliated universities, Masci (2015) asks “And what about a religiously affiliated institution, like a university, that offers married heterosexual students housing but refuses such accommodation for married gay and lesbian students?” the ruling by the Supreme Court, in my

M. V. Lee Badgett mentions in his article “What Obama Should Do About Workplace Discrimination,” that this would make a great first step on what concerns banning workplace discrimination against homosexuals by federal contractors. If the government, the structural system of our country, is not only willing to accept all but pose as a model of approval towards all kinds of sexual orientations, then so should we, the people, who make part of the nation. Discrimination against this group of people is unfortunate, but extremely common nowadays; more and more individuals are being harassed, not compensated with adequate wages, and/or fired from their jobs because of the way they sexually identify themselves. This strikes a fear in gay, lesbian, bisexual, and transgender employees who feel as though they must produce more than the average worker in order to not be affected or expelled from their jobs, often leading them to not take illness days off, vacations, and to perhaps be more productive than the majority of their colleagues. Badgett explains that by issuing an executive order against workplace discrimination, President Obama will be able to gradually bring back equality to the nation, providing parallel opportunities for all and reducing stress, fear, as well as death and unemployment rates in the gay community.
