Hey @JohnCornyn, it's impossible to separate sex discrimination from sexual orientation discrimination.
Discriminating against an LGBTQ employee or hiring applicant, is treating a man differently than a woman that does the same thing, or vice versa. It's that simple.

Like, it's stunning how badly conservatives have failed to think through this argument.
If discriminating based on sexual orientation is okay, what else is okay? Can you discriminate against men for acting too feminine? At what point does it become sex discrimination?

If LGBTQ protections are not covered by the CRA, the entire premise of what is sex discrimination becomes up for debate. Are you discriminating because she's a woman, or because she's acting too much like a man? Suddenly one's okay but one's not. Even though they're the same.
