LB 586: Sexual Orientation Anti-Discrimination Nebraska State Legislature Testimony
Just over a year ago, Clark Lauritzen, then-Chairman of the Chamber Board, testified at the Nebraska State Capitol in favor of LB 586, a measure that would forbid firings because of someone’s sexual orientation and/or gender identity.
With the measure up for consideration again this year, we thought it appropriate to share Clark’s remarks and re-iterate why we support this measure so crucial to talent recruitment in our state.
Passing LB 586 is the right thing to do. Contact your senators now.
LB 586 prevents someone from being fired based on their sexual orientation or gender identity.
