Executive Order Protecting LGBT In Workplace Now In Effect

President Obama's Executive Order, signed July 21, 2014, on LGBT Workplace Discrimination went into effect April 8. The executive order prohibits federal contractors and subcontractors from discriminating on the basis of sexual orientation and gender identity. LGBT people employed by federal contractors across the country will now receive new legal protections designed to ensure they are judged solely by the quality of their work.
